I can try and take some quick measurements tomorrow - its a much bigger seat so I'm pretty sure the base is bigger but will check. Britax also makes a Roundabout 50, which is a version that will fit kids up to 50 lbs (vs 40 lbs.). Maybe that one has a similar base size, but just a guess.

There's another thread where someone did remove the base, I have no idea what value the base adds but I was loathe to mess with the car seat in case it did have some contribution to safety.

BK or Rennline harness mounts do not work very well with the LATCH attachements that come on the Britax. I used a COSTCO seat that uses LATCH hooks similiar to the ones used for the Tether strap. More of a hook than a clip and it fits over the Rennline harness mounts easily.

Correction...I used an Evenflo.

Britax Frontier

Does anyone know if Britax Frontier will fit in the coupe rear seat?

Looking base shape in the photo, it doesn't look like it'll fit in well, but wanted to know if anyone has tried. Thanks.
