I'll post pictures when I get home. She's so awesome, she's even going to help explain how to install it for me!

so if you pull it ll the way out, how do you make sure it is in the "green"? It is certainly an awesome seat, but overwhelming to install

if you tighten the tethers then it should put it in the green mine goes in the green soon as i tighten them.

Yeah.. that is way over my limit..

It is really a shame that if that technology really saves lives, That we don't have it here and that it is not more affordable. I would love to rear face my kids. Now that I know more.

Enjoy that seat!! It is really pretty!

Yes. The manual says to pull the footprop all the way out (away from the back of the MT), then extend it to the floor. I think it gives a picture to check the angle. You could double check with AD, but that's the way I always did it, and the angle was right, and the installation was solid.

Yes, after you've done it once or twice, the installation is actually quite simple and elegant!
