*When installing the seat back sure to install with the vehicle seat-back all the way down and make sure your install is TIGHT without the vehicle seat-back in place.
1. Enter Element from the rear.
2. Pull down seat-back as low as it will go.
3. Have your Solomon climb into his seat.
4. Make sure he takes a moment to ponder the Portland sights.
5. Leave his harness loose... I haven't tested it, but I'm assuming if you pull on the harness adjuster it's going to be enough pressure (remember the 35 pound child leaning back in the seat already) to move the seat base away from the "seat bight".
6. Put the seat-back all the way back up and tighten harness.
7. Load Bob and you're ready to go!!
I figured this out yesterday when we got to where we were going and he was asleep, I thought my install was tight enough to allow it... I was right!!
So So So much easier than loading from the side in an Element... Especially with a Frontier in the other seat! And I swear it's harder now that it's in booster mode.
