CAR SEAT in leather equipped Maxima ( & Pathfinder)
The wife and I are about to have a baby boy, and we need to put car seats in the 2k3 Maxima and 2k1 Pathfinder.
Both cars have leather, and I imagine that when pressing the car seat down tight, it will leave indentations on the leather.
Does anyone know what I can put between the car seat and the leather to keep this from getting to bad? Is there anything on the market especially made for this?
thanks for the help

My wife is about to have a baby too. We registered for one of the car seat protector pads at babies r us. It seats on the seat and seat back under the car seat to help protect it. Not sure how well it will work but it should provide some protection.

I used a large, black checkered bath towel (frost leather). I used it under, behind. and on top where the tether strap hooks onto the rear deck. I haven't removed the seat in a year or more, but I doubt there's any marks on the seats.

but I don't mean any malice, just trying to get attention about my post.
thanks for all the replys everyone, we found one in a catalog called "One Step Ahead" but it doesn't look like it goes up high, so I might also use some towels...
thanks.

Make sure you get something made to protect... I recommend NOT using a towel. My wife's car (volvo cross-country, SWEET! leather) has a permanent stain from some kind of juice because we used a towel and the 4-year-old spilled it. I know it's not an issue with a baby, but we never thought twice about it, until the juice incident.
The protector should have some kind of waterproof coating.

yeah, the one we found in the "One Step Ahead" catalog uses a water proof material...I think the towels will just be for the higher areas where the seat backs touch, the bottom will be of the waterproof material.
good thing for me though is that BOTH of our cars have charcoal leather, so stains shouldn't be a problem.

They have specific mats (looks like a rubber floor mat) at those giant freakin baby stores. I've been using one for a while and it's worked great. I don't know how a towel could work? Those baby seats get pushed down pretty hard. When I used a thick towel in my other car it left permanent dents. You could put a towel under the these mats for extra protection but I wouldn't use a towel alone.

Try getting some of those large, gray interlocking mats from Homo Depot, Lowe's etc. They are about 2' square, 1/2" thick, and come 4 to a pack. You can cut them to any shape so you don't have this big, freakin' mat hanging out from under the seat base/back. Been using them in all my cars since the kids were born and have no indentations at all.

That having been clarified, try nearest the leather putting a blanket or something similar, then over that something more firm like doubled or tripled cardboard and fold the blanket back over it. This would be your cheapest.

That said, haven't had any problems with a pad.
