Hi,
I have a 2007 Audi A4 [B7 style] and will be needing to put in a baby car seat in a few months. From what I've been told in the shops I should get an IsoFix base to clip the car seat into.
I believe most new cars have IsoFix mountings already built into them - my wife's car has them but mine doesn't. There are two screw holes behind each rear passenger seat, so I guess the IsoFix can be retrofitted.
My question is, can anybody give me advice on what I need to get, what price range would it be and is it easy enough to install?
Many thanks.
No isogix available for front seats as far as I know, ford main dealer charged someone on this forum over 200 to fit in their focus , at the time I had posted
You’d think it’d be that simple! I’ve been in touch with two Audi dealers and one ex-dealer and received three different replies to my request!I'd take it to an Audi dealer and see what they say…
As far as I know you’re correct, but I don’t want it in the front.You may not be able to fit Isofix into the front unless the airbag is switchable.
We’ve bought a base which can be used from newborn through to child. As such there’s no need for us to buy a new one when the baby grows out of the rear-facing baby seat.Isofix car seats come in many guises now and you have to make sure you get the right seat for the right application. My only comment would be that you don't use the rear-facing "baby" car seat for very long so the extra expense may not be right for you if it's only a second seat for example.
Thanks - I've got twins on the way hence the reason for left and right IsofixGood luck!
Why do you need Isofix?
Plenty of non-Isofix car seats out there
Yes, he was talking about the plastic guides. But it took me waiting for him to get the order in and drive up to the Audi garage for him to realise he was wrong.I think the first dealer may be getting confused between the plastic guides (which hold the cushions out of the way so you can fit the seat) and installing the Isofix bars.
