    Back seat recline adjustment after car seat install?

    Hi, I just turned my son's Radian RXT to FF yesterday in my Mazda5 and noticed that the front of the car seat was raised quite a bit off the front of the back seat. In turn, I used the recline feature of the seat (as allowed in the installation manual), so that the bottom front of the car...

    Question RadianRXT RF tether question

    Be got a brand new 2012 RadianRXT and will RF my son (19 mos, 28 lbs, 33.5" tall) in it. I'm doing a latch install, and the manual states "stability of installation can be improved by using top tether". Required? Mandatory (law)? I chose not to tether him in his current seat (5 year old Britax...

    Question RadianRXT webbing path question

    Question re: MA RFing in 2010 Mazda5

    Hi there, I'm getting ready to move my DD out of her current seat (MA) and into her new FRXT. My 8-month-old DS will move into it, as he is near the limit of his infant carseat. I had installed - mastered! - the MA install in my old car, but now that we have a new Mazda5, I'm afraid I'll miss...

    Question Head support while RF'ing my 7-month-old in MA

    Hello, I just bought a new Frontier XT for my DD (4yo, 45 lbs, 43" tall), so she can pass her MA on to her brother (7 months old, 21 lbs and 29" tall). The only issue is that it's a four-year old seat, so it doesn't have the extra head "wings" - padding around the head area - that the new...

    Hello, I have a Britax Marathon in my `99 Camry. It's currently RF, but my DD is almost 33 lbs (the RF weight limit, I believe). So, I'm looking to switch it to FF.
