Question Hyundai Tucson - UK

Guest
Hi

UK user so hope you can still offer advice. We have a 2006 Hyundai Tucson and have been informed that we can only use the Maxi Cosi Tobi FF seat for what we want due to the seatbelt stalks. Is this true? My car manual says that the car have isofix (not sure what this means) we didn't know if there was away of shortening the seat belt stalks? The Maxi Cosi Tobis are approx £130-£200 retail in UK. This there any others you are aware of that will fit our family car?

Many thanks

It's probably an ad or banner ad of some sort showing up since you're unregistered (registered supporting car-seat.org members and Admin/moderators don't have the ads visible typically when logged in here) rather than replies to your post because thus far there haven't been any replies from car-seat.org members with suggestions for your vehicle. :eek: Hopefully someone familiar with UK/EU carseat options and your vehicle will be along to reply to your post directly, and I've moved your thread to our international section to encourage them. :)

It would be helpful to know how old, tall and heavy your child is? Also if you are looking for a rear or forward facing seat? Is your seat belt stalk made out of webbing?

There are for sure many seats which will fit in your car but more info is needed.

In the US and Canada, at least, you can twist the female portion of the belt up to 3 full twists in order to shorten the stalk without compromising safety. In my 05 Hyundai elantra (US specs) this is what I had to do to get a successful install. I don't know what UK seats would work for you but a variety of US seats worked, so I can't imagine that you'd only have 1 UK choice.
