    Suggestions on which backless boosters work best in the 3rd row of an Odyssey (we have an '09)? We need 2 back there. Thanks!

    Life of a Nextfit

    Realistically how long will a Nextfit last an average weight/taller child? My 3.5yr old is in one. We are ready to get rid of our Frontiers from my twins and put them in boosters (I can't get the belt to run smoothly through the belt guide so I'm afraid they won't be able to buckle safely)...

    Spare booster seats

    I'm thinking about trying my boys in boosters for our spare vehicles (Dad's car 04 civic, grandma's 08 jeep cherokee). My one son is nearly outgrown his harnessed seat (only goes to 50lbs). I'm hesitant to put them in boosters but I would like to try them out and see if they're ready to...

    Booster or Carseat for travel?

    Just curious what people do in this situation. We will be traveling by plane to Disney, then getting a rental car for our week there. My twins will be almost 6. They are still harnessed but wondering for the trip if we should booster them? We will be traveling with them and a 2 year old so that...

    trouble with nextfit harness

    I'm having a lot of trouble getting my nextfit straps tightened- the pull strap is really difficult to pull. Any suggestions? The seat is brand new (less than 2 weeks old). I've tried waiting to clip the chest clip until it's tightened and pulled the harness pads all the way down but that...

    Convertible recommendation

    Looking for carseat recommendations for my DD. She is 11m old- just a few ounces over 20lbs, about 29 inches (not sure her torso height, she is sleeping right now). I am looking for a convertible that will rf her to at least 3 years old. She will be in a 2nd row captains chair in an Odyssey...

    will this work in a 09 Odyssey?

    I'm trying to figure out how to get 3 kiddos in the 2nd row of my 09 Odyssey when we go on vacation so we can fold down the 3rd row for storage. Does anyone know if I can get two frontier 85's in the captains chairs and a rf older marathon in the middle? I would do my radian in the middle but...

    local carseat check

    I thought there was a site I could search for local carseat checks by certified people (not just a fire station where they aren't good techs). Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm in the Chicago suburbs btw. Thanks

    Scenera height

    The manual for our scenera is in my mom's car... can anyone help me real quick- what is the height limit for the scenera? Is there a 1" rule or can their head be above the top of the seat as long as the straps are at or above their shoulders? I can't remember. Hoping my guys haven't outgrown...

    Radian AA

    Did I read somewhere that there is a 2nd generation AA for the radian? I didn't see mention of it on their website but I have one from when they first came out. Thanks!

    Radian AA's in an Odyssey

    Got mine in the mail yesterday! I installed them in my radian xtsl's in my 09 Odyssey and they are great! We can move the front seats all the way back and they still don't touch the radian's! I tried to upload pics but it said my files were too big??

    If I were to replace my radians

    I am so distraught about the whole situation with the radians. I really would like to get new seats because it stresses me out. I had issue with one of my radian xtsl's superlatch, they sent me a new on and I haven't had a problem. It makes me sick to think about replacing 2 radians a year...

    replacement SKR latch straps

    SKJP sent me new latch straps to replace the ones currently in my radians (one is loosening!) but they included no instructions on how to replace. Has anyone replaced these before? I'm worried I won't do it right. Not even sure where to start!

    should I be worried about my radians?

    I have read some of the posts about issues people are having with their radians- should I be really worried about mine? I have 2 xtsl's that have been installed RF w/latch for about 4 months now. I tug on them all the time and they are always rock solid but I'm really nervous about them being...
