We need to buy 2 carseats for my 9 month old son, one for a 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse and one for a 2005 Scion xB. I can't go much over $200 per seat, and if there is a good seat for cheaper than that of course I wouldn't mind :D I want him to stay rear facing as long as possible.

Also we don't like the convertible seats we currently have for my 4 year old daughter-- is the Graco Nautilus a good choice for her?

How heavy is your four year old, and what convertibles do you have that you dislike? Generally the Nautilus should be fine for her, but broader kids may prefer the Britax Frontier over the Nautilus.

just wanted to add that car seats fit FF and RF in the scion xb beautifully (we own one) so i would concentrate on finding a seat that fits well in the eclipse and then try it in the scion.

i personally loved how well the myride65 fit in our scion.

Well it doesn't necessarily have to be 2 of the same seat :)

My daughter is about 34 lbs. The 2 seats we have now are the Evenflo Triumph-- which is actually fine but when we took the cover off to wash it I noticed a piece of foam on the inside is cracked, so I don't think it is very safe with a cracked piece of foam?

The seat I really hate is the Alpha Omega Elite. The straps are constantly getting twisted and she just doesn't seem to fit right in it.
