    In Search Of "Fun" True Fit cover

    My girls are bored of our black with blue polka dots True Fit Premiere cover. ;) I'd love to trade it for something different. I like the brown and cranberry ones, and the yellow with flowers if that is a TFP one. May be open to something else though. I also could trade it for a Radian cover...

    For Sale or Trade 2 SK Radian Premiere Covers - Princess

    I don't actually know what these might be worth, so feel free to make me an offer if my price is unfair. I have two covers, both the same print, Princess I think it's called. Shipping from Canada. One has been well used and is faded, but washed and in good condition. The belly pad is fraying...

    Price Check Mostly never used SK Radian covers

    I have a cover for the older SK Radian Premier car seats in Primrose. Everything is brand new and has never been on a seat, except for the infant side pillow/toddler head pillow (the infant head pillow is still brand new), which is clean but faded. I'm in Canada but I assume it would work on a...

    Radian in Chrysler Cirrus

    I'm doing a car seat check for my husband's cousin today. They have a Radian XT and a 1999 Chrysler Cirrus. I've been searching around the forums and haven't found much information about installing in this car. I'm hoping that means it's straightforward, not that it's impossible. Anyone have any...

    ICBC question

    A friend of mine was in an accident today. ICBC claims they won't replace the booster in her van because her daughter is 9 and doesn't need it anymore. That seems ridiculous to me, because regardless of her daughter's age, the seat was in her van and is no longer usable. She can't even pass it...

    My four year old prefers rear facing!

    I've heard some older children actually prefer rear facing, but wondered if it would end up being true for my own daughter. She is tall for her age, and all of her height is in her legs. I recently started making pants for her because I couldn't get any in store that were long enough without...

    Wisp/Via in Canada

    Friend of mine asked me if the Via is actually available in Canada. I've read here that says only in a travel system from Zellers, but I called a couple of Zellers and they all say they were supposed to get it but never did. Has anyone actually seen it in Canada? If so, do you know how much it...

    Seat for second (older) vehicle

    Would love some input on a seat that might be good to have permanently in our second car, a 1990 Civic hatchback. It's small, but I have been able to get a Radian and True Fit rear facing in there with room for driver and passenger. This car is used for my husband to commute, and the kids have...

    Safest way to install seats in an old Civic with no tethers

    *Update* I think I did it! Pics in #10 ~ Safest way to install seats in an old Civic with no tethers My van broke down today, and we are supposed to take a 2 hour trip (each way) tomorrow, ironically for a car seat technician course. I can't just reschedule, it's the first time I know of that...

    Radian Premiere spring is loose on foot

    I took out our car seats to clean the van today, and the foot or the Radian fell off as I took it out. I didn't think much of it (though I probably should have). Later, when I went to reinstall, I realized the spring that is supposed to click and hold it on is really really loose. I can push the...

    Am I interpreting this wrong? (Booster law in PEI)

    I'm semi-sleep deprived, so I think I may just be interpreting this wrong. But I was looking at the car seat legislation in Canada (http://www.safekidscanada.ca/Professionals/Advocacy/Documents/26794-CarSeatLaws.pdf) and happened to notice under PEI it says: "Children between 22 pounds (10 kg)...

    True Fit giveaway

    Hope this is the right place to post this (and that it's okay to post). It's not my giveaway, I just read about it and thought others here might be interested. I did enter, but it would just be an extra seat for our second car. I :love: our True Fit, so I think it's an awesome giveaway. I saw...

    Honda Civic ff tether?

    If I'm understanding what I've read correctly, we can have forward facing tethers retrofitted in our Honda Civic? Do I just call up Honda and ask for the part and they'll know what I mean? It sounds like sometimes dealerships don't really have a clue about these things, is there a way to find...

    Older car and seatbelts

    My husband just bought a 1991 Honda Civic for commuting. Prior to that we just had a 2003 Kia Sedona, but he commutes to work about 75km each way twice a week so we needed something that doesn't use as much gas. It's not meant to be a car for driving the kids around much, but we figured if our...
