Non-slip mats, ok?
I have read on here about using non-slip mats underneath car seats. Is that truly all right? I have Prince Lionheart seat protectors (they aren't very thick, but they are rubberish- like a floormat) that I put underneath all my car seats and boosters. My installations are so tight that there was no movement at the belt path at all by the techs who checked them, but I added the seat protectors a few weeks ago, then re-installed the car seats.
The car seats seem absolutely as solid as they were prior to that addition, but have I done something wrong? I'm reading that they won't hold in an impact, but if the seatbelt is tight....
I'm confused. I'll take the things out if I'm putting my kids at risk, but I really feel that they help with slippage while I'm installing the seats.
And also- what about bracing an infant convertible seat against the front seat- good or bad move? I've never done it, but I am reading that it *may* be a good idea.....
Thanks again- what a great resource this is!
