    Backless booster for 9 year old

    My almost 10yo (48", 70lbs) daughter is in need of 2 backless boosters. She is currently in a Parkway in my car but I'm going to pass it on to my 7yo to use in the babysitters car. She really wants it to be well padded with cupholders and I would prefer it to have Latch. I'm ok for the one in...

    Parkway SGL or Monterey

    I'm trying to decide between these 2 but no one around me carries them to try. My daughter is 6 1/2, 49", and about 47 lbs with an average build. The fabric on the Monterey looks a little sofer but it's so hard to tell from just the pictures. Also are people still having problems with the...

    Which has the tallest shell?

    I'm trying to see if anyone knows right off hand which of these has the tallest shell. Roundabout 50, Classic MA, or Roundabout 55. One of my MA's is about to expire and dd ( 3 3/4, 25 lbs, 36") is still too small for me to feel comfortable ff'ing her. So I'm looking for something to just get...

    A new seat to continue rf'ing or not?

    My dd will be 4 in April and is a whopping 36" and 25 lbs. One of her seats is going to expire next month and I'm trying to decide if I should buy another convertible to continue to rf her or a combination and ff her. She's just so little that I'm not sure if I'm ready to turn her yet. Right now...

    Roundabout 55

    So I was at BRU today looking at the new seats. The 55 seemed to fit dd just like the MA65. She had exactly the same amount of shell over her head so now I'm considering it over the MA70 since I'm only going to be using it rf'ing. It has appeared to have all the new features (minus the...

    Which seat to choose?

    So I need a new convertible for my 3 1/2 yr old and can't decide which one to get. She's teeny at 24.5 lbs, and 11.5" torso. I'm sticking with Britax b/c I need the tether (sometimes it's in a p/u truck) and the Radian/True Fit aren't just don't work for us. So do I go for the old Blvd which I...

    Should I buy a new seat to rf a 3 1/2 year old?

    My ydd will be 3 years 9 months when one of her MA's expire (Jan 2011). Right now (3 years 4 months) she is 24 lbs with a 11.5" torso. I've been debating on what to get her when hers expires..a convertible or a combo. I just don't know if I feel comfortable to ff her yet at her size. On the...

    Tether anchor in 2000 Town and Country

    Does anyone know where the anchor is for the 2nd row (captain chairs) in a 2000 Chrysler T&C? I was trying to install my nephews seat for my parents and couldn't find it anywhere. The manual says that it has them but doesn't say where.

    Would this cup holder be ok?

    We have one car where dd can't reach the pull down cupholder. Would this one be ok to put on her MA? It "screws" on pretty tight so I don't think that it would be likely to come off during a wreck. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3762944

    Tethering a DVD player

    Is there something I can get to tether a DVD player for my rf'ing child? It velcros around the headrest but I would like to be able to tether it to the back of the seat so it is less likely to become a projectile.

    Frontier 85 install on an airplane

    Anyone installed one on a plane yet? We are flying in about a month with it and wondered how easy/difficult it was to install. I'm also wondering if the belt would be long enough with an extender to do the lbp if needed.

    Affordable combination seat

    I'm looking for an affordable combination seat for my neighbors 3 year old son. She needs one that has at least 50 lb limit, decent harness height, and will make a good booster. I suggested the Nautilus for him but she was trying to find something a little cheaper. It has to be something that...

    Crack in the buckle

    I found a crack in the buckle on my Marathon. I'm assuming that I shouldn't use it anymore and order a new harness for it, correct?

    Is the Frontier 85 FAA approved?

    I'm about to buy one and need to know for sure before I do. I've seen it listed on a review but not on anything from Britax.

    Forward facing Seat for ext cab F250

    We have a 1996 ext. cab F-250 and are having a hard time finding a seat that will fit in the back. The seat is at a 90 degree angle, is very short and not very deep (only 13" I believe). The seats we have tried usually don't have > 50% of the car seat on the vehicle seat and press really hard...

    FF MA - Ext. Cab trucks

    Any one have any suggestions for Ext Cab trucks that will fit a ff MA outboard (without the seat touching the back glass) and a rf MA center? We currently have a 96 F-250 ext cab but the MA won't fit ff. It has less than 50% of the seat on the vehicle seat and touches the back glass. We are...

    FF seat in a 1996 Ford F-250

    We have a 96 Ford F-250 and are having a horrible time finding a seat that will fit ff in the backseat. Our MA fit fine rf but my dd just hit 33 lbs and it won't fit ff! The seat is only 13 1/2" deep and 19" tall. Less than 50% of the base fits on the seat and the back of the seat is right up...
