I wonder what kind of sound it makes. If its very loud or annoying I'd worry about it distracting me.

I almost bought this at BRU the other day. My DD sits next to my sons car seat and always unbuckles it by mistake. I don't know how many times I've put him in his car seat, drove all the way across town, to discover his seat isn't buckled in!
Before I buy this I'm going to see how well my rigged seat belt button cover works. I cut off the bottom part of some old pj pants, slipped it over the buckle stalk, and put a piece of cardboard in front of the button to keep her from pushing it through the sock. It's been on there for a few weeks, and so far so good.

A really good reason to check ev.er.y.single.time. you put a child in a seat.
I like your idea though I'd still be wary and check. It takes less than 3 seconds to do a wiggle check after buckling an lo inside.
On the product: If a child cannot be trusted enough to sit in a booster and not unbuckle until the destination, the child isn't ready for a booster, imo. :twocents:
Hmmm...this is interesting, but I'd like to see it in action. I never had troubles with A unbuckling herself, but when she was next to E she would sometimes unbuckle the seatbelt. It's not an issue now though, so I don't have a need for it thanks to our Jeep having center lower anchors for latch. I'd still like to see it in action.

Have you tried flipping the buckle on the belt once? so that the button is on the inside, not the outside, so your dd can't even really unbuckle it? Like when you twist a female end of a seatbelt.

How do you check a tight 3 across?
And what happens when you are running late. Obviously fix the seat(s) before leaving but if this product told you the seat got unclipped upon arrival at a destination it would be a lot nicer to know then than when you are leaving and already running 20 minutes late to find out you PITA Radian install came undone.
I'm certainly not immediately opposed. I was also thinking of tight 3-acrosses where kids accidentally unbuckle the seat next to them.
Also perhaps for parents of older children with impulses control issues who are unwilling/unable to purchase a more exacting method of restraint.
I want to see how it works and whether or not it interferes with the correct use of the seatbelt.

I looked, no mighty tite! Just their version of a locking clip:thumbsup: Step in the right direction? Listening to us car safety nuts? I think it might be so

i couldn't find the mighty tight either. Now they should quit marketing all the rest of the not recommended aftermarket car seat accessories.

I really only thought of it as a safeguard against unbuckling a seat accidentally. I guess it could be useful for naughty unbucklers. But if they're doing that they shouldn't be in a booster, as someone mentioned.
I did not see the locking clip thing. I was hurrying. I wanted to see which was the new Monterey before I went to try it out. It's the one that the center color on the headrest doesn't go completely to the bottom of the headrest, right?
I went over to try the Monterey in my Tribute, and I wanted to make sure I had the right one.
