We just installed the True Fit rearfacing in a 2006 Accord for my 19 lb, 30 inch tall daughter. My tall, skinny 11 month old. Anyway, we got it installed without too much trouble, but I can't figure out whether or not we need to leave the cushions in it...with them in the straps just barely fit her in the second slot, and without them she is just lost in it--her shoulders don't touch the sides and there's nothing for her head to rest against to sleep. The issue isn't that it makes her sit up too high in the seat -- I don't mind putting the attached headrest on.
I thought about cutting the two sections apart - the back and butt cushions are attached, of course - and just using the back cushion, but I wasn't sure about doing that, since it would ruin the cushion for use with another child.
Should I just put the separate head pad back in? Is there another solution?
Thanks!
