What if my child restraint doesn't come with LATCH?

You can usually retrofit LATCH onto a child restraint.

Lower Anchor belt retrofitting: Retrofit kits are available for most Evenflo, Graco/Century, and Cosco/Safety1st/Eddie Bauer child restraints manufactured within the last 6 years. These kits can also be useful when traveling with an infant carrier (without the base) as a LATCH installation is usually easier and rarely incompatible with vehicles when compared with a safety belt installation.

Tether retrofitting: A forward-facing child restraint that did not come with a tether would have to have been manufactured before 9/1/1999, making it more than 6 years old. Use of a child restraint over 10 years old is discouraged; most manufacturers have a 6-7 year use limitation on their child restraints.
