Just an FYI, the angle adjuster is labeled for babies over 1 yr. Hopefully you have more time than you think in the Snugride, but at 4 mos, the baby still needs to be pretty reclined. Usually it isn't until 6-8 months or more when you can make them a bit more upright.
I would also consider trying out the new Britax convertibles. They are very compact front to back and often fit in places you wouldn't think. The other thing to look at is not just how far back the passenger seat is, but how upright. Many times, just making the seat more upright will give you the room you need for a convertible.
Anyway, keep an eye on where his head is. The Snugride is outgrown when his head is one inch from the top of the hard shell.
