Husky install question

Ok, I have misplaced my manual somewhere so I have a question. I finally figured out how to do three across in my taurus with the parkway in the middle and the blvd and ma outboard, so I'm thinking about leaving it that way and using the husky in dh's truck. The problem with this is I can't do a long belt install as neither of his belts are long enough and of course there's no latch because its an 88. So my question is can I do a short belt install with a lapbelt and no recline bar?

Re: Husky install question

With a lapbelt-only install, you must use the short belt path PLUS the recline bar.

Can you get tether anchors installed? The Husky is such a heavy seat I'm not comfy with it not tethered, personally.
