The one thing that would make the FR85 perfect

A no rethread harness adjuster that didn't require the seat be uninstalled.

Just had to reinstall it because the straps Kaleigh was under in the house, she was over in the car. lol

Scratches head...it does have a no thread harness adjuster. But you do have to uninstall it to adjust the head rest, which adjusts the harness. Which, I agree is lame. I wish you could squeeze it from the top and adjust it without uninstalling. Sigh. Otherwise, it's perfect for us.

Yes thats exactly what I meant. I would have been great to be able to adjust it without having to pull it out of the car and reinstall. :thumbsup:

In some cars I've been able to squeeze my hand in the back to adjust it. But I have small hands, and that seat was shaped just perfectly.

If the vehicle seat reclines, you can lean it back enough to adjust the harness height. I can also almost always get my hand behind to adjust it by loosening the tether and kneeling on the very front edge of the seat until it dips forward a little.

I can adjust the headrest in my car without uninstalling. I just loosen up the top tether and shove my hand down the back. I did it a couple times today, cuz 2 different kiddos used it. :) My seat backs don't recline or anything.

Suburban seats don't recline. We both have burbs. It's a love/hate thing! LOL

It is a love hate relationship, isn't it? :) She's my girl, and I wouldn't trade her for anything, but sometimes she makes me wanna give her a good swift kick in the bumper. ;)
