Britax Duo Plus Isofix

Archive for the ‘Britax Duo Plus Info’ Category

Please note that if you have one of the following cars, you also need the Britax Duo Plus Isofic Performance Pad. This is because the duo plus has not passed crash tests without the mat being fitted in these cars.

The mat is simply placed under the fabric of the seat. Easy to fit – just pop under the fabric cover of the chair. It just seems to give a bit of extra padding, but if you have one of the following cars and don’t use it, it is possible you may void the insurance.

You should be able to buy the mat for around £9.

* All BMW’s
* Mitsubishi Colt 5 door
* Mitsubishi Colt 3 DOOR
* Smart Forfour
* Suzuki Swift EZ,MZ
* Mini

If you have arrived here and live in the US, sorry, but I’m afraid this particular Britax car seat is not available to you. Try the Britax Marathon 70 or the Britax Marathon 70 Convertible Car Seat
which are also exceptional products.
