How do I search for a convertible car seat that is compatible with my vehicle? (As in size). I was searching for a seat to fit my 2013 Altima and found where you can enter make and model and the site will show seats compatible with the car. How do I do that?

Unfortunately there's not really a good database or app for that that exists. If you'd like some suggestions, we'd love to help you out with some, though! We're glad you found us! Crowdsourcing the information here is one of the best ways I know to find out what does well or doesn't do well in a given car. :)

You might be thinking of Nissan's Snug Kids program. They list carseats that are compatible with various Nissan vehicles.

I've noticed that they don't test a lot of seats, including ones that I know to be compatible, and some of the ones they list as compatible may leave the front seat unusable in some cases.
