Does anyone know if the rear seatbelts from a cavalier will fit in the rear of a nova and if they are any longer overall as we struggle to fit our son's rearward facing car seat in the back of our runaround nova....

Cheers

i think they should fit, but i cant see them being any longer than a nova's seat belt.

i thought they might be seeing as i can get the car seat in the back of the cavalier with no problems.......

I think some are longer, the mounting points in a mates Cav were furthur back IIRC. so i'd guess that they would have to be a bit longer to compensate.

I have the same problem when I take my nephew out for a ride, his seat only just fits in the front and even then the seat has to be right back with a load of recline. Give Cav belts a go and let me know if it works, 9 month old children MUST experience Novas as a vital part of their development.

it should fit in the front ok with the seat pushed back.
The inertia units from the cav would have to be mounted exactly right as they can lock up if only a few degrees out, its part of the design..
