    Why is the anti-rebound bar for the Pavillion available in Canada but not in the US?

    I'm just trying to figure out why. Is it a marketing ploy? A legal issue? I almost ordered one. Britax was ready to ship me one until they noticed that my address is in the US, not Canada. Very frustrating.

    Can I tether my rear facing Pavillion under the middle row seat to the 3rd row anchors?

    So I have my RF Pavillion in the outboard middle row seat. I cannot find a suitable tether point anywhere in my 2008 Ford Explorer so I fed the tether strap under the middle row seat through to the the anchor points on the floor of the back row. It looks great to me but I need to know whether...

    Car Seat Covers for Briatx Chaperone?

    I apologize for the double post. I couldn't remember my username and posted as a guest, then decided to try and figure it out and posted under my username. Anyway, Now that the Britax Chaperone rear faces to 30 lbs I guess it's a lot bigger than the Britax seat I used 7 years ago. Do the car...

    Can you use a D-ring to anchor Monterey?

    I'd like to use my Sunshine Kids Monterey in the third row of my Ford Explorer where there are no lower anchors. Can a D-ring be used to somehow anchor it the rear tether point? If so, how? If not, is there any other way to anchor this seat in the third row? Also, this seat in the third row has...

    Question FF Harness seat and Forward of bite seatbelt

    Hi everyone. You guys are so helpful. I have a question.... I tried installing my daughter's Radian 80 (using seatbelt...she's over the anchor weight limit) in the middle of our 08 Ford Explorer and it's a "no go" due to a variety of reasons. So I tried installing it in the third row and it...

    How many of you lock the belt with boosters?

    I'm just curious. I have two girls in boosters now. 7 year old in a Monterey. 5 year old in a Bodyguard. I am extremely uncomfortable with leaving the seatbelt unlocked so I always lock them both which makes me feel better when we are driving, but it's a serious hassle when we get out. The...

    Friend's 2 yr old in Booster? Links please...

    An acquaintance of mine just had a baby so she moved her two year old (who weighs 30 lbs.) into a booster so she could fit the infant carseat in the middle between the two boosters (she has a 5 yr. old too). We're not close friends so I don't how to approach this with her. She thinks it's fine...

    Question Anyone have pics of kids in Monterey?

    I'm debating whether to buy a Monterey or a Vivo. I like that the Monterey can be latched, so I'm leaning towards it, but the website photos aren't great. Specifically I'm curious about how that shoulder belts slot work. It looks like it would be cumbersome. If any of you have pictures it may...

    Question Recaro Vivo users...do you like this seat?

    Hi everyone. I'm thinking of purchasing a Recaro Vivo for my 7 year old, but I will have to purchase it online since it is not sold anywhere near me. Before I buy one I was wondering if any of you who own one would share your likes and dislikes regarding this seat. I read the reviews on the...

    Question Booster suggestions. Need help here!

    I'm having a heck of a time with my oldest child's booster seat. She's 7/49lbs/46". She's in a Britax Bodyguard which I previously loved, but have grown to hate since purchasing our new 2008 Ford Explorer. I want her in the middle seating position because my other two younger children are in FF...
