My Baby X 2 +1
Well.............................................. ...............I have been debating getting rid of my SVX. My wife is 6 months pregnant I considered getting something more practical. But I have decided to keep her! Heck the kid(s) will need to be teenagers before they may complain about the room in the back seats.
The other big news is I just purchased another SVX for parts. I needed tires (and rims) and rotors, so why not just buy a whole car. (at a good price, of course---that just had a brake job)(Its a 94, I will be parting out in the spring) So, anyway-- I'm keeping my baby, even got another, and having a baby in 3 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tapper PS Does any know if a baby seat will easily attach in the backseat? Last edited by TapperManor; 03-01-2003 at 11:33 AM. |

The baby seat should mount fine in the back seat. The mount for the seat blends in nicely with the speaker grills on the back shelf.

Which one are you parting out, the "new" one or the "old" one? I think you made the right choice.
The baby seat should fit fine (although an SVX with a baby seat + baby in it is a bit of an awkward picture in my head), the people I got mine from had a young daughter that sat in a baby seat in the SVX. -Aaron

baby seat
Baby seat should fit in just fine. They have the mount/brackets in the car for that. As for the parts car, let us know when you part her out.

No problem for the kiddie seat
I've had both kinds, rear facing, and forward facing mounted in my back seat no problem. Though the seat I have now needs to be put on the pass side so the seat can be moved up a little. The tether mounts just show once again how the SVX was ahead of its time.

I'm parting out the newly purchased '94'.......I think!?. Supposedly it is still drivable..........................and might be savable (has chips on spoiler and left rear panel damage) Previous owner says he lost his heat completely. He had it looked at, and the dealer said that coolant was down and it may need a head gasket. I may just start driving it amd see what happens. Any thoughts on what it might be???
Thanks for the baby seat tips. I don't think it will be awkward, although I may need to bend over a bit more that an in an SUV. |

Second, do the 92 models have these tethers? I've been tryiing to mount a forward facing seat in my SVX now that the baby is old enough and the seat belts don't hold the seat very well. If there is a special thing in them to attach baby seats I would love to know! HELP!!!!
