I got the Blvd FF and the Ma RF next to each other in the middle row. I got the blvd tether nice and easy on the spot on the back of the seat. everything lookds great as far as I can tell and has a great instal. nice and tight and the seats arent even touching each other. my only issue is to where to tether the RF MA? I looked under the seats and couldnt find a spot. I did find a big coin purse full of change... guess someone missed that on inspection! :D It was mostly pennies.. probably only like $3-$4. LOL Anyway, I can't find where to tether. DH suggested I route it under the seat and tether it in the spot where I would tether it if it was FF. I don't know if that is allowed and safe. Right now, its not tethered to anything but would LOVE to get it tethered. I took some pictures that I can post in a little while. the camera is in the van and we are getting ready to return the rental car. any suggestions?

thanks!

Can you get the D-ring around the leg of one of the front seats? I believe when we had a caravan rental, I could just barely fit the D-ring around the leg of the front seats. The legs were bolted to the floor so it was fine to use the tether there.

you cannot tether it to the seat it is on...so tell hubby thats a no go.

This is in your '05 Dodge Grand Caravan, right? If so, this previous thread about RF tethering in an '07 model should help you in finding a spot to tether RF (I think it's probably the same in your '05 model):

yes, for the 05 dodge grand caravan.

the no tethering to the same seat the carseat is in is only for RF, correct? I have the FF seat tethered to the back of the same seat it is on per my interpretation of the manual.

i couldnt get the dring anywhere, not even the leg.
off to check out that other thread
