    Latchable booster and Mini Cooper

    DH has put in his order for a new John Cooper Works MINI (finally!) so DD2 will need a booster seat for it as he drives her to daycare once a week. I would prefer something that LATCHes. We currently own a TB, Cybex x-fit, and an old Monterey (SK). TB doesn't latch. The Cybex is my first...

    Removing smoke smell from cover

    Since I think this question will be missed in my other thread, anyone know of a good washing machine additive to remove a faint cigarette smoke smell from a cover? I normally use ALL free and clear. And for those who may be upset for me about the smell I did give them the seat to keep and...

    20 hour Road Trip and NBB

    In ten days we leave for TX. It will be about 20 hours in the car and we plan on driving over night. DD2 is easy, she'll ride in her ProSport. DD1 however rides in a NBB; Evenflo Amp. She's 56.5" now, 100# and has 21.25" torso height. I don't think there are any HBB that would fit her, or be...

    ISO: Cybex X-fit

    ETA Found one, thanks! I knew I should have grabbed one of these when they went on clearance last year. :( I want something other than black or cinnamon, one of the bright colors please. I think one of these would fit DD2 well. Anyone have one they want to part with?

    5 point harnes and LATCH anchors, but not what you think.

    Huh. Alright, I found this today: http://jpmcoachworks.com/blog/index.php/sema-2011-subaru-wrx-sti-by-rallysport-direct-jpm-coachworks/ and if you scroll through it you will see the driver and passenger harness coming and attaching to what looks to be the LATCH anchors for a child safety seat...

    FFS: four Leapster games.

    Does anyone still use these? DD1 loved it for years, then DD2 did. Now they have DSs and it has sat untouched. The Leapster itself has a very scratched screen and is missing the stylus but I'll include it if you really want it. It's pink. The games are Disney Princess, Ariel and Cinderella...

    Driver's seatbelt question.

    The other day I accidentally shut the van door on the seatbelt and the little button on the seat belt popped off. Now the male end of the buckle drops to the floor and is really annoying to fetch. Can I put a baby pin through the original hole to hold it up? And is the button repairable or am I...

    Oobr dream..

    The briefest little part of my dream last night. I was shopping BRU and there was an Oobr on the shelf, on sale for $144, in the most lovely tie dye print with the white base. I think Clek needs to do a tie dye. It would look awesome.

    Anyone have a child that five stepped at 8y?

    DD1 does in the middle and back row of the van. Feet flat, shoulder belt on shoulder, lap belt on hips. She's 55" and 90lbs. She's wanting to ride without the booster. If the child fits in the belt is there any reason to continue to use the booster? Was it something about the illiac (sp?)...

    Intergrated child seats in a Tesla, WDYT?

    So DH found this, rear facing seats with a five point harness in the back of a Tesla hatch back. (he's been eying the Tesla's for a while now). They are labeled as children's seats and crash tested to a rear-end impact of 50 mph. I was just wondering what tech and fellow car seat enthusiasts...

    ProSport foam for the seat belt gap.

    Anyone actually have this and can you pictures of it? I bumped the other thread but I don't think it's being noticed because it's so old. All other searches have failed. I want to see if it worth trying to get a hold of Recaro for. DD2 has decided it is uncomfortable in both seats now that...

    Quick, does the ProSport follow 80/20?

    We're leaving in 30 minutes or so and need to know if this works alright. I moved one of the ProSports to the back row because I'd rather not have DD2 next to anyone in the car. But if it's upright the LATCH strap cuts into her back and she complains. Reclined it sits a little flatter...

    Long sleeve girls casual dresses?

    Anyone know where is a good place to buy long sleeve casual dresses for a narrow child? I have two hand me downs from DD1 but they are too wide in the neck (HA play dress and Gymboree, if you are curious). The child has shoulders that match her 19" waist. It looks more like we'll pulling her...

    Kiddy Shield weight

    From their face book: "Kiddy USA Amanda and Elizabeth - I'm not sure what happened but I responded to your question and now it is gone...weird! Anyways, the weight limit will be 40lbs with the shield and 110lbs without. At the moment we are concentrating our efforts on getting the Kiddy World...

    Now what?

    I put DD1 (7y8m) in DH's 2000 Civic today and encountered a soon to be problem. She's been riding NBB for a time and her ears are over the head rest! I put the Monterey in and she is on the last click, just about even with the slot. It will work for this week but I don't know what to do if...

    Rec for lap belt, no tether for 4 yo.

    4y1m, 30# found out today she's riding in a classic car, lap-belts only in HBB. Money is very tight so I'm footing this one (this guy is like a brother. If he's letting her drive this car then he's serious ;) So, cheaper and does okay without tether? I was thinking a Scenera but was wondering...

    Anyone wash a ProSport cover yet?

    DD2 spilled her drink yesterday in her carseat. Now it *must* be washed, according to her. So, before I take it apart any tricks I should know? I don't want to hurt the cover like I did the first time I took a RN cover off :o TIA

    Parallels® H-Sphere

    Parallels® H-Sphere Okay, I got here through google. I CANNOT access the forums home. I can access just about anything else that google can reach through google, so swap, international, special needs and technical questions. Every time I aim for the forms home I get the Parallels H-Sphere...

    ISO: RSTV size small

    Spring has sprung and the top can come down on G'ma's convertible. Of course the girls want to ride! I think this would be the safest way for DD2 to ride in the back seat. She's is not very big. 40#, 14" torso. So size small, any color is fine ;) Please include shipping, 80233, with your...
