Does anyone know a good forward facing child seat for a toddler that wejghs over 15kg. I have looked at a couple and they don't seem to fit as the cars heardrests get in the way and they are non-adjustable and non-removable

I'm sure the heardrests come of if you really want it ;-) Will wait for answer as well since we need a new group 2/3 forward facing child seat this month.

I have already phone the volvo dealer and no they dont come out

The only one that does is the middle one in the middle row i.e. the one with the built in booster cushion!

I can't believe that a car like this wont take a standard 2/3 child seat.

I think I may write a letter of complaint direct to Volvo. How hard could it have been to have designed the headrest rests in the rear 2 rows not to cause this problem. Surely given that they have a built in forward folding mechanisim they could have allowed a release option to allow the headrest to tilt back by about 10 degrees. This would have allowed a child seat to fit correctly!!!!
