they dont need airbags, cause theyre airheads lol

Lol...it's not so much the weight...it's where the weight is distributed. My wife is only 120 and will activate the airbag if she's sitting all the way back in the seat. If she slouches down with her butt at the front of the seat...then it gets turned off...

I'm just saying, if you're dating Jabba the Hutt's sister, your airbag knows what's up.

We have a little guy, turning 2 next month. The first thing I noticed when I was looking at the Z was the child seat anchor in the back. I thought great, I can take the little guy cruising. My wife saw it at the same time I did and said "NO" before I could even get the idea out of my mouth. So he has to sit in my DD (a Pontiac G6) and Mom's DD (a slammed HHR). Sucks to be him. Every time we pull into the garage and get him out of one of the DD's he always points to the Z and goes VROOM VROOM. ha ha

The instructions are easy. I have a son that is 2 years old. I have the recaro baby seat. Seat perfectly for the passenger seat. Just make sure to adjust the passenger seat to the baby seat. There are sensors on the passenger that can read if you have a baby seat on. Those sensors can detect and shut off the front airbags of the car. The anchor in the back is for the the long latch on the back of the baby seat connect it to the anchor and tighten it. Its another safety device other than the seat belt to secure the baby seat on the passenger seat. Ill take pics and post later.

From the manual "Also, if a child restraint of the type specified in the regulations is on the seat, the occupant classification sensor can detect it and cause the air bag to turn OFF." Also it states "If you must install a child restraint in the front seat, it should be placed in a front-facing direction only. Move the seat to the rear most position. Child restraints for infants must be used in the rear-facing direction and therefore must not be used in this vehicle."
Basically if they can ride in a front facing seat they should be able to ride in the Z. Just make sure the restraint/booster seat is positioned and installed properly.

Three pages and Kenchan has not weighed in?

I have a 13 month old son and I use my Z as a daily driver. I have to take him to day care every morning and I dont see a problem with it at all. When he is in the car, I drive super cautiously. And it's not against the law in Georgia.
