Does anyone know if the extender they have available would fix...

    New Nautalis no new sticker

    I just got my Nautalis from walmart, DOM nov 18 2008 there is only one government sticker, and it's BLUE (weird) this annoys me, because when I first saw the manufacture date, I assumed that that's why the box had been opened, and retaped. I registered the seat, should I wait and see if...
