Starlight-NXT Car Seat
The Starlight-NXT child car seat was developed to accommodate children with special needs.
The Starlight-NXT is specially designed for very small children, and includes a double piece back support pad to reduce seat depth. To allow for growth in the child, an XL kit is available to grow the car seat when required as the child grows. The Starlight-NXT is suitable for young children from 9kg, and will grow with the child right up to 36kg.
The Starlight-NXT is compatible with most vehicles and is designed to be installed in the back seat with the use of the vehicle’s 3-point safety belt. Additional to the vehicle’s seat belt, the Starlight-NXT comes with a 5-point padded harness to ensure optimum postural support and comfort.

Features:
Slim swivel base
To make transfers even easier, an innovative swivel base with a compact design is available to spin the seat so that the caregiver or parent does not have to strain their back lifting the user over the edge of the car seat. The pivot point on the swivel base is off-centre, so that when it is rotated it simultaneously swivels away from the vehicle seat and towards the vehicle door. This allows for easier transfers as the caregiver does not have to reach as far into the vehicle. The slim design of the swivel base allows for more space and headroom inside the car when transferring the child in and out of the vehicle, and only adds a mere 16mm to the overall height of the car seat.
20° of tilt
The backrest angle of the Starlight-NXT is fixed at 90°, however the car seat also comes with an extended angular adjustment (10°-20°), which can be of great assistance for children with limited head and trunk control.
Adjustable lateral supports
An innovative feature of the Starlight-NXT is the lateral supports. These are robust aluminium supports which guarantee the child a stable sitting position and are adjustable in position.
Adjustable 5-point harness
The Starlight-NXT comes with a 5-point padded harness to ensure optimum postural support and comfort, complete with shoulder padding and padded tee-pad. The harness has a ‘one-action’ adjustment feature to adjust the strap length from one centre pull adjuster to allow for growth.
Backrest height adjustment
Inbuilt adjustment at the rear of the car seat allows for the back support height to be increased for growth.
Cup holder
The Starlight-NXT comes with a fold-down cup holder.
