Anybody done it? My ity bity 24lbs 2 year old is so squished for leg room in the MA. It's getting hard to get him in. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the MA. I can install it in minutes, it's easy to leave the harness tightened, and well, I just love it. BUT...... um, I wanna play with a Radian :whistle:. Just to, you know, see if it works.

So anybody install it sucessfully rearfacing in a trailblazer? I tried to search but couldn't find anything.

yes! we actually just traded in our trailblazer... but it is an awesome vehicle to install a radian in. it was my first time with a radian and probably didn't take me more than 2 minutes. i used the seatbelt. and the seats are nice and sloped for an upright install.

i love my odyssey but i miss the install of the trailblazer :eek:

I can get our FR RN into our Trailblazer so quickly...and solid. The seat are really easy to compress and sloped so it is nice and upright too! I can get pics later if you want.

I know someone who has 3 across in Radians in her Trailblazer. For a while at least one of them was RF.

A dream, the seat almost installs itself, really :). In general though I have found the Trailblazer to be an awesome car to install any seat in, but the Radian is really perfect.

We have an '03, and have two Radians, one FF, one RF side by side at the moment. We will get a third when my wee one moves to a convertible.

ETA: Wanted to add they are installed with the seat belt. I have never used LATCH on my Radians, I find the seat belt install super easy. Also, I can get the highly sought after, upright Radian RF installation as well. :cool:
