    Question harness question

    Wondering if anyone knows why if ff the harness straps have to be at or above the shoulders? My DD wants to be back in a harness but the only seat I have is a safety first apex 65 but she has an 18 in torso. I let her sit in it today for the ride home but wondering is it really that big of a deal?

    bubble bum

    Would this be an appropriate seat for a 7 yr old 42 lbs and 52 inches? She will be in the middle between a hbb compass and a safety first apex 65. There is a head rest and both a shoulder and lap belt. We cannot find anyway to get 3 across otherwise and cannot buy a Radian.

    Question belt extenders

    Is it OK to use seat belt extenders in our lancer so that my daughters who are outboard in montereys can buckle themselves when I find a RF convertible seat for my son in the middle. The seat belt clip is pretty short and I don't think neither them or my husband or I will be able to reach our...

    recaro probooster

    Wondering if anyone knows if the seat belt guide at the shoulder is closed off or if it has an opening at all. I don't mind if I have to open it to get the seat belt in but am needing something that is able to totally close.
