RE: Infant Seat
I too found the rear belts too short on my wifes 850, it was possible to get the car seat in the rear (with some pushing & grunting) but to fit the seat in the front was impossible. Bought a Volvo seat from Lancaster Volvo which was £250 including a front and rear fitting kit, a baby insert, fitting (instalation) and VAT. They say this seat is suitable up to 4yrs which if you consider how much a stage 1 seat and stage 3 seat is it isn't that bad.

RE: Infant Seat
Graco fit's perfectly.
We have 2 seats. (A Graco baby carrier) and another german seat called a "concord" they're a bit like recaro seats for kids. Both fitted snug-firm in my S70 and my old 850 T5... IN the back and front... G |

RE: Infant Seat
Our baby seat fits in the front but not the back, though there isn't much slack left in the belt. I priced the longer belt from volvo and it was over £80 +vat. I then had an idea!!! Securon make seatbelts and are a uk firm, so I looked up their website and they sell seatbelt for the 850 and other models for around £35. They also sell seat belt extenders but advise against using them with child seats. I don't know if these are longer then standard, but I'm sure they can make longer ones and much cheaper than Volvo. I haven't contacted them yet (been busy) but thought you might want the extra info.
