We are planning on using an RSTV (size small) for our approx. 35 pound 4yo DD1 on our upcoming trip. I tried installing it today. I'm not sure if I did it right. It looks like it is gaping too much, but I remember seeing other threads with some gaping that was considered to be okay so I'm not sure how much is too much. It is so different from using a regular 5 point harness seat. I tightened the vest's seatbelt all the way, as far as I could, to the point that it barely overlaps the velcro that holds the end onto the vest.
I really want this to work and I really don't want to have to buy a travel seat and haul another car seat with us, but it just doesn't look right to me. But then again, I am no expert. Help, please! Thank you!
P.S. It would only let me upload 3 pics so I tried to pick the 3 most useful, but let me know if another perspective might help more. Again, thank you!
