    Question How to make booster more comfortable?

    Hi - my son is 8, but little (47" and only 43lbs). Anyway, he rides in a Graco Affix, usually with the highback attached. On long drives, he complains that his bottom hurts and sometimes that his legs fall asleep. The seat is very stiff, and basically feels like sitting on hard plastic...

    Question Possible to add highback to backless Graco booster?

    Hi everyone, I recently bought a backless Graco Affix with Latch for my 6.5yo son (44" and just shy of 40lbs, pretty small for his age but mature). He has a highback Affix in one car, but the shoulder belt seems to fit him ok in the back of my 2008 Honda CRV without the highback, so I opted...

    Question booster advice for tiny 5yo, and tiny 2-door car

    Hi- My 5yo son is only 39.5" and 33lbs (4% for height and weight). We have a VW GTI, 2 door, and are currently using a TrueFit. It is becoming a royal pain to get him in and out of it, since the seat is so "deep" on the TrueFit. He is also getting a little too tall (IMO, head 1 inch over...

    Do they make replacement harnesses?

    Hi, we have two TrueFits and love them. However, one has been sitting in my husband's car and hasn't been used for several months. We recently noticed some mold on the straps (of the 5pt harness, not the LATCH), and I'd like to replace them without replacing the whole seat. I took the...

    suggestions for compact convertible seat

    Hi everyone, We are looking for a compact convertible car seat to fit in a 2-door VW GTI (essentially a Golf hatchback). We have a RF TrueFit in our other car and love it, but we are looking for something more compact - the TrueFit is simply too tall for visibility, especially in the center...

    a few questions - True Fit in 2002 Acura TL

    Hi... we just got our True Fit C630. I am going to install it in a 2002 Acura 3.2TL (4 door sedan like an Accord). 1. I think there are 4 LATCH locations in the back seat. Does that mean there are two appropriate positions (outboard), or can I install with LATCH in the middle? I think the...

    recommendation for tiny 2-door volkswagen? true fit?

    Hi everyone, I am trying to decide what convertible seat to get for our 2003 VW GTI. It only has two doors, which makes getting in and out of a rear-facing seat a bit of a hassle. I am planning on getting the new True Fit for my car (Acura 3.2TL). However... we have a trip coming up and...

    questions about the 2009 True Fit

    Hi, I'm thinking of getting a True Fit for our 14mo son, but I've heard that a new model is coming out in March. - Is there an official "release date"? I need to know how long I will be waiting. - Will the new features (anti-rebound bar, easier harness adjustment) be worth the price...

    need advice on weight limits

    Hi, My son is 14mo, 25lbs (~50%) and just under 30" (~25%). We are replacing our Keyfit30 with a convertible. At the top of my list is a Britax Diplomat because of it's compact size (we have small cars). The weight limits fo RF/FF are 35/40. I've also looked at the Decathalon which has the...

    fabrics - what's best (re:sweating)?

    Hi all, Our son is 14mo (25lbs, under 30"). We are shopping for a convertible to replace our Chicco Keyfit 30. I really like the design of the Maxi Cosi Priori, but the "metallic" fabric is similar to the Keyfit - and in the summer our son sweats it in. So my question... are plush seats...
