I know it is unsafe to wear a heavy winter coat while in a carseat.

My question is how thick of a coat is considered "too thick" for the carseat?
For those of you that live in climate where a winter coat is a must for being outdoors, how do you handle the winter coat situation with your children/carseats?
I was just wondering if there are any good ideas out there. Thank you!
Britax.com quote from FAQ:
If a child wears thick winter clothing, the safety belt cannot be tightened and is not positioned correctly. In an impact the belt first has to press the thick filling of the coat together, before it can hold the child back. This restricts the safety considerably. Therefore it is necessary to take the coat off.
