Accident today - Do I replace my seats? If so with what?

So, my husband was in an accident this morning with both our kids. Thankfully it was not his fault, and no one was injured. It did cause enough damage that the vehicle (2003 Envoy) was not able to be driven from the scene. He was coming to a stop in the left turn lane at a light and the other driver was making a right turn and hydroplaned and slid into his driver side front tire, bumper, quarter panel area. Both seats were occupied. Both kiddos were checked by EMS on the scene (I insisted) and were cleared. No apparent injuries.

My daughter was riding in an SKJP Radian XTSL and my son in a SKJP Monterey.

1. What is SKJP guidlines for replacing seats?
2. If they need to be replaced, what would you recommend? My 7 year old son is 80lbs, 53 inches tall. He fits great into the Monterey. My 3 year old daughter is 38 lbs, 39 inches tall. She was on the upper harness slots of the SKJP Radian XTSL. She also rides in a Britax Frontier in our other car.

Thanks!

Yes, by any criteria, those need to be replaced. I would go with a Monterey and Frontier, probably.
