Lap belt only help needed
Hello,
We have a 1973 Chrysler Newport, lap belts in back only. I looked but there is no retrofit shoulder belts available and dh doesn't think installing a tether is structurally sound for this car. We also have a 1975 Jeep Wagoneer 4x4, lap belts only. I couldn't find whether or not there are retro fit shoulder belts available or whether a tether could be installed.
We can't afford a new vehicle so I'm looking for the best solution.
Here's my situation with 3 kids.
DS= now in an Evenflo On My way 3 pt. harness. He weighs between 15-18 pounds and is almost 4 month old. I'd like to put him in the Roundabout but what do I get for dd who is in it now, that will last for a while?
DD= now in a Britax Roundabout. She weighs around 30 lbs., is 40 inches tall, and measures 14 inches from bottom to shoulders.
DD= weighs about 40 lbs., 47 1/2 inches tall, measures 19 inches from butt to shoulder and 25 inches from butt to top of head. We had a britax laptop for her but can't use it in either vehicle because when you click the belt together it won't go in the slot. Let me know if this makes sense.
What are my options, if any? Right now oldest dd is in a EVENFLO FIT RIGHT BOOSTER<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/frown.gif ALT="">
Thanks for any input<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=""> I know there are a lot of questions so input is greatly appreciated.
