Unfortunately they only make a latch seat for todlers, none in the convertable infant-todler type and it is forward facing. I would like to keep my son rear facing as long as possible. They have also had some substantial recalls. http://www.safetyalerts.com/rcls/category/seat.htm#britax Volvo's system, at least from all of the pictures that I have seen seems to be the sturdiest and safest.

One other question for you:
How far back does the WHIPS seat move the seat back down? Even with my infant seat mounted in the center of my wagon, it comes into contact with the front passenger seat. I am concerned what might happen in a rear impact as the seat back moves down and contacts the child seat which i gather will be larger than the infant seat. Is this a feature that the dealer can disable?
Thanks,
Ian
