Hi Everyone
We are planning a trip to Ireland (from the US) with our 4 and 6 year old kids in June. We plan to rent a car there and I need advice on carseats. At home our 4 yo rides RF; 6 yo is in harnessed booster or FF convertible. We have a variety of seats we could bring on the trip, although I'm not sure any will work - e.g., our FF seats require a top tether and from some quick reading it seems there are not tether points in European cars?
I know that technically it's probably not legal to bring a US seat there. What I'm concerned about is safety, and what I'm hoping is that there's a way we could safely use two of our existing seats for this trip.
Although, looking for any and all advice.
The seats we own which we could bring are:
Graco Extend2Fit (my 6 yo still fits in this FF; we own 2 of these seats)
Clek Fllo
Britax Advocate (click tight convertible)
Diono Radian
Britax Pinnacle (click tight Harness to booster)
Britax Frontier (click tight Harness to booster)
Thank you!
