We are picking up our "new to us" 2002 Ford Taurus Wagon tomorrow. It's the SEL model... leather seats.
I'm going to need to install carseats QUICKLY (obviously I can move them later, etc if need be) because of when we're getting the car and when i have to pick up DS#1 from school.
Although I've installed using LATCH many times, It's been a while and I want to make sure I have it straight... (our current cars don't have LATCH)
Currently I have DS#1 outboard on the passenger side (in my car, which we're replacing) in a GN. He's 41lbs so I was planning on using LATCH in the new car and putting him in the same position. Is this ok? And can someone tell me where the top tether will be found???
DS#2 is my We have one Roundabout and one Decathalon and I can use either in this car... he's RF (he's 20 months old and MIGHT weight 20lbs... he'll stay RF until he reaches the weight limit of the seats) ...
Should I install him in the middle seat and use the seatbelt (this is where he currently is in my car) or should I install him outboard on the driver's side with LATCH? And which seat should I use? The Roundabout or the Decathalon?
Oh! One more question! Where is the tether location for the rear facing seat ??? Does the Taurus have someplace on the driver's side??? If not, what do you recommend???
TIA!!!!
