Also for anyone considering the Diono there is a thread here amazon-ca-canada-day-deals-week-1194982/#post14974170

amazon.ca has a diono RXT for $250 shipped (+tax) and a R100 for $197 shipped (+tax) this is the cheapest I've seen them.
I wouldn't do that because if there was an acutal accident then that's definitely not approved. Very dangerous! Why take the risk for a few dollars.

We've got the Britax Boulevard G3 and so far so good. The only complaint I have is the installation of the seat is a pain. You've got to pull the belt and push the seat really hard to get it tight. Therefore, once installed I'm afraid of taking it out when we need it in another car. Gonna have to buy a second car seat so we can use it in other cars when needed.
But Britax came out with a new version just a few weeks ago that is much easier to install and to remove. Babies R Us carries them.

No difference than using a rolled up towel.
Yes, some car seat manufacture have suggested that in their manual!
