While "dealer" might certainly be too strong a word to 
attribute to a major discount outlet, that is usually where
children's car seats are purchased, and my whole point was/
is that there is no dealer to consult. The people who sell
you the car seat can't really help you; the people who sold
you the car (the automobile "dealership", the used car lot,
the old lady down the street who stuck a "for sale" sign in
the car's rear window) definitely won't help you to install 
a safety device not purchased from them for fear of liability issues.

A number of police departments have set up help of some kind,
and if I remember correctly, there was a nation-wide car
repair chain (Aamco, maybe?) that offered to give away and
help install child safety seats. But for many parents, this
is a problem for which there is no help except the instructions
that come with the seat. Not all problems have a simple solution.
