I looked through the successful Radian Install thread, but didn't find the answer, so, I'm hoping someone can verify for me! 1999 Suburban, middle row, FF Radian installed with seatbelt. I COULD NOT get it in tight enough with the way the buckles on the seatbelt are. It is a lap belt and has short buckle stalk, so there was no ability to twist it. Any other tricks?
It is my dad's car, but we use it frequently when everyone wants to go together (we used it this weekend to take a snow weekend with 7 of us). I need to put something in that middle seat that is narrower than the GN so that the adults that sit on either side of C can have a bit of room to move their arms!
In the short time we had before we left on Friday, I tried the Radian, could not get it to work, and switched to the MA. Was not too comfortable with that since there are no tethers in the car, but then realized the middle lap belt in the 3rd row wasn't being used, so tethered to that.
My parents keep a GN at their house for use most of the time and A has his turbo there. The hard part is when we are all in the car! Just FYI, the best seating arrangement we have come up with is 2 adults in front seats, Adult, C in harnessed seat (no headrest and lap belt only), Adult in middle row, and Adult, empty seat (no head rest; lap belt), A in his turbo.
