I'm going to New York City for a holiday between the 9th of June to the 24th of June and as some of you are aware we're not a couple anymore but are going to be travelling with a 6 month baby.

So the question is does anyone have a rear facing Infant Car Seat I can borrow from you for that period. I will make sure you are not out of pocket as a result.

Or does anyone know of places I can hire a car seat from in New York - best if in Manhattan.

Mod : Why is this in the Parts, Accessories and Mods section. If anything it should be in the Lounge.

Bruce - Take a look at the attending member list for my upcoming meet on June 14th. Most of these guys are from the NYC area, or just outside. I would shoot them a PM and ask if they have any car seats lying around that they no longer use.

Ok guys to make it tempting.

I need to use this car seat only for 2 weeks after which time you can have it back. However since I need it from the day before I arrive (to take baby from the airport to where we are staying) I would ask that you be able to drop this off at my relatives place in NY (Queens or Manhattan)

In return I'll let you have a v5 cable for HALF price.

This works out to much more than I would have had to pay if I rented one but with this way both parties get something they wanted out of the deal. If there is anyone who would like's this offer please PM please asap because otherwise this afternoon I was thinking of picking a cheap one off eBay or renting one.

This needs to be a rear facing infant car seat.
