    Britax Frontier harness adjuster difficulty

    Hi all! I've had a Britax Frontier G1.1 Clicktight Harness-2-Booster Car Seat for my 4 year old daughter since last year. I am considering buying another for my 2 year old son. (I rear faced my daughter until 3 1/2 yo but my son is a lot more feisty and getting to be difficult to secure in...

    Diono Radian install on airplane

    Hi all. Two years ago we went to FL with my DD, then 2yo, and attempted to install her Diono Radian - twice - and could not get it to install. The buckle for the airplane belt was right in the middle of the belt path, so there was no way to tighten it. We're now flying again, and we were...

    RF seat for secondary car & travel

    Hi all! We're flying down to visit my in-laws in FL. We're carrying on our Britax Clicktight for my 4yo DD, and my 21mo DS is going to be a lap child. (I know, not safe! But we were burned when we took down my daughter, because our Diono would not install on either flight, and it was very...

    Install help- RFing Radian RXT Ody '09 leather

    I have two Radian RXT car seats installed rear-facing in the second row captain's chairs, which are leather, in my '09 Honda Odyssey. Currently they are both installed with LATCH, but my DD is about to reach the weight limit where we have to switch over to a seat belt install. (She may move to...

    Safety 1st Adv EX 65 Air in '09 Honda Ody?

    Will the Safety 1st Advance EX 65 Air install in the passenger side second row captain's chair in a 2nd Generation ('09) Honda Odyssey...and still allow a passenger in the front row? Be advised this version of the Odyssey has the chair that moves side to side, not front to back. (Perhaps I...

    Radian RXT RFing install w/ angle adj '09 Odyssey

    My DD is in a Diono Radian RXT RFing. She just turned 3, and will outgrow the Radian by height in 1/2" and by weight in 5-6 lbs. I'm about to move it into the 2nd row captain's chair, driver's side, and install using the seat belt (instead of LATCH we were allowed to use up until now)...

    FFing combo seat, puzzle w/ Radian, Prius

    Hello all. You may have seen my posts this week as I've cycled though a bunch of car seat options. I really can't fathom why I didn't measure my daughter first off, except I thought she was smaller than she is! I apologize for inconveniencing you. It turns out my daughter (who just turned 3)...

    Graco MySize 65 and/or new Safety 1st?

    Hello all. You may have read my recent posts about buying a new car seat to keep my DD RFing longer (she is 3 now). (By the way, this seat will be in an Odyssey and/or a Prius sedan.) I think I have decided that ultimately the new Safety 1st seat that goes to 50 lbs and 49" RFing is our best...

    '09 Ody w/ captain's moved over - install options

    I'm wondering about the options for installing my DD's car seat in the passenger side second row captain's chair, when the chair is moved over towards the middle, creating an aisle on the pass side of the car. Can we only install here with latch? Is it allowed to use the seat belt but not...

    Car seat to RF tall 3yo, to age 4, in '09 Ody

    Hello all! We have a '09 Honda Odyssey with two Diono Radians RF. My daughter is just 3yo and about 41" and 36 lb. She will outgrow the Radian's shell in 1-2 inches of height (I need to double check how close she is, but we won't be using it for a couple days, and since it is below zero...

    Which keep big kids RFing longest?

    I'd like to keep my children rear-facing as long as possible, but they are big! I have a 2 1/2 years old who is 32 1/2 lbs and 39" tall. She is in a Diono Radian RXT, so she'll be maxing out the height limit probably before the weight limit. I have a 4 month old who is 21 1/2 lbs, so I'm...

    Honda Odyssey '06-'10 vs. '11+ decision help pls!

    We definitely are going to buy a used Honda Odyssey. We know which feature we want, and will probably get an EX-L. (I've already seen here that we should skip a Touring unless de-PAXed, '06 and up for 5 tethers, budget for timing belt replacement - thanks!) We've been leaning towards an...

    Which make and model year minivan?

    Hi all. We have two children and are probably done, though we may have one more. One child is 3mo, 18lbs, in a RFing Britax. The other is 2 1/2 yo, 38-39", in a RFing Diono Radian. We intend to keep them both RFing for as long as possible, and I intend to get another Radian for the 3mo...
