Can you put Maxi-Cosi in middle seat?

Do ISOFIX bases fit all cars?

Isofix seats will not fit in every car with Isofix points. As with any child car seat, follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Isofix cars have Isofix slots hidden behind the rear seats, in the joint between the back of the seat and the seat cushion. Push the connectors into the Isofix slots in the car seat.

Do I need ISOFIX car seat?

Car seats, seat belts, and seat belt anchorages vary dramatically between cars.
