I posted earlier with some questions about the tether straps and the Radian - with 2 in the back bench seat of my town and country I can't tether since the anchor is in the middle of the seat - only one anchor.
That got me thinking though... we are planning to get another set of seats for our almost 4 year old twins (need seats for DH's car - 2000 Expedition - not sure which seats will be in my car and which will be in his...). I am returning their Wizards to Britax because they have some cracks on the base (Britax said it was not a safety hazard; but that I can return them). Britax has said when I ship these back that I can get replacement seats of my choice for $100 each. I'm either going to get Regents or Frontiers.
Now to my question... when I posted about those a while ago someone said that with both seats when DC hits a certain weight the seats must be tethered. But with the Radian it sounds like from reading the manual that you don't tether after 40 lbs. Could that be right? What is the difference?
