Does anyone recognize this "7B4LTCCA2" as a Graco SR model number?
If so, does anyone here know how to search for what the seat looks like (pattern, rear adjust?, etc) based on that model number?
My cousin bought a used seat :(. That's the model number she sent me. I've verified that it's not recalled (based on the DOM she sent me), but would reeeeally like to see what seat she has.
If it helps, it's DOM is 2006/04/20.
And I apologize for starting three threads in as many days. Normally I'm not this needy lol... but this is a great board. :)
Thanks,

My guess is that it's this one here:
http://www.elfe.net/e/Item.asp?code=7068&s=0153BFD
model id for the travel system is 7B04LTC
With Graco the LTC or whatever generally indicates the pattern name, and CA would be Canada. So while this one has an extra 0, I suspect it's the same one. Looks like it's rear adjust and originally came in a travel system since none of the stand alone car seat model #'s start with a 7.
eta: description says 5pt harness as well.
eta again: Starting threads isn't a bad thing. :)

Thanks so much!
I think you're right. That must be what she has.
I've never seen a rear adjust SR come with a footboot. Usually the ones with the boot are higher end, no?? Weird.
Total bummer about the rear adjust.
And truthfully I don't love Quattro stroller either. (I know, I know, some people love them, but they're just too bulky for my taste).
I guess they paid $100 for the set. What can you do. FTP's on a budget, and they do know the people. Used for one child only.
My focus now is making sure that cranky base is installed properly. (seatbelt install, lap/shoulder [will use locking clip to prevent tilt], middle seat, Ford Focus... oh joy!)

Trudy,
Every other site is saying that the Lattice Quattro TS has a front adjusting seat. And now that I think about it, I don't think I've met a Quattro TS that came with a base model car seat... right?? LiteRider yes, Passage of course, even the Metrolite in some cases, but not a Quattro ... unless I'm way off. ??
I'm Really hoping this seat of theirs adjusts from the front... Really, really hoping. :thumbsup:
Again, thanks for your help.
Now, do you know of any GOOD techs in Medicine Hat??

Sorry, I don't know of any in medicine hat. How close is the hat to lethbridge? I know SJA in Lethbridge will do carseat checks.
I'm not positive on the rear adjust vs. front adjust, that's just what the website said. :shrug-shoulders:
I've never had a Quattro tour stroller, but did buy a lite rider for ds. If they got the stroller and carseat for $100 they did good - especially since they know the owners and know the history. That's the way to do it if you have to buy used. :thumbsup:
Any chance the middle position of their Focus is lap only? I don't know off the top of my head if the Focus has always been all lap/shoulder or not. I'm admittedly not a car history buff so don't know tons about when changes in models happened unless it's a vehicle I've owned. ;) If they're only going to have it in for a few weeks before you're down, they're probably fine installing it with the seatbelt and just watching for extreme tilt. The base doesn't tilt a huge amount with every vehicle, and a slight tilt doesn't pose any danger - it's only if it increases a ton that there's concern.
If you're concerned about correct use, you're probably better just walking them through the seatbelt install without the locking clip, then checking it when you go to see them. Less steps means less room for error. :thumbsup:
Do they have the manual for the seat? They should call Graco for a replacement if not. (The Snugride does have a panel on the back for manual storage, so they should check there first jic it was stored in the proper spot. ;)) And have them check their vehicle manual too, that should give them some great starting points. :thumbsup:

When I was scoping out SnugRides back in 2004, I don't remember seeing a single one sold as part of a travel system that didn't have a front harness adjuster, so my fingers are crossed that your cousin's actually is front adjust.
It was hard to find a stand-alone SnugRide that had a front adjust, actually. Frustrating. I did find one, but it cost a lot more!
