Looking for a low profile seat for drivers side captains chair is 07 Sienna? My daughter is almost a month old but the Keyfit she's in expires in Oct so I wanted to start looking. She's in 3 month onesies (Carters brand) and newborn pants. She's 9lbs. I have back injuries so I don't want a high base to lift her into as she grows. No budget, really. Any recs?

Well, the Dionos are about as low profile as it gets. For a little infant they take up a lot of room front to back in full recline. Would you be able to slide the seat in front of her up a little? When she's a little older you can get an angle adjuster and it will install more upright.

She's behind me, but I'm only 5'5". Does BBB still carry them to try out? What model do you like?

I'd say that the Milestone or 4Ever are just about as low as the Diono, and rather easier to install and adjust. The armrests are higher, yes, but also the sides are shallow, so that helps. BootsNBuckles, do you live anywhere near a Babies R Us? You can try them in your car to get a feel for it. A Diono should should fit fine, though, we always had it at max recline for my kiddo in my van and had room in front of it to drive comfortably.
