car seats in a Limo?

lilpenguin · Jun 12, 2013

We won a limo ride/private tour of recycling facility from a silent auction.

My girls are 3 & 6.

Can I install their seats?

ETA: I know seats can only install on the back bench, but do these always have seatbelts?

YES! The 6 yr old should at least have a booster, especially since you are right there but the 3 yr old absolutely!

but they can't be installed on the sideways seats, correct?

Correct. You would have to install the car seat and booster on rear seat.

That's correct, only on front-facing seats.

Is this a limo tour JUST of the recycling plant, or on the way to/from also? If just the plant itself, is it all on an internal road system?

The limo ride is to/from the facility (prob a 20 min ride that includes highway).
At the plant, they have a shuttle bus that goes around inside it (which I was assuming I could let the kids go w/o seats)

I installed my dd's seat in a limo, against the back bench that faces the front of the car.it was nearly 3 years ago, so I don't really remember details to give you helpful pointers, but I do remember that I got a good tight install. DS also used a booster, and it was fine.

Yep! I have even installed one on the rear seat of a RR limo convertible.

it was lap belts, but went in just fine.

We just were in a limo with DS for my moms funeral.

I was super surprised at how car seat friendly it was. Locking lap/shoulder belts, top tether anchors, latch...everything.

I had taken his marathon to use the lock offs not knowing what it would be like. I ended up just using the lock offs anyway because it was faster. I put him FF (he normally RF) on the back bench.

My dad owns a limo company so I know all about the building process lol...They use the back end of the actual car (for a Lincoln town car they use the actual Lincoln frame) so it's the same as the backseat of a typical, non stretched car, including seat belts, top tethers, etc.
