Nautilus chest clip

Ok so DS has had his nautilus for about 2 years. Today when buckling up to leave for Grandma's house both prongs on the chest clip broke off. Do you know if I can buy a replacement clip from a store. I check Babies R Us but they only had the old style infant seat clip which I don't think would work. Do you think that Graco would just replace it for me since I don't think that a clip should fail under normal use after 2 years when I am suppose to be able to use it in harness mode for 6. Good thing he can ride in a booster well since we are driving to the beach on Sunday and that is his only harnessed seat.

I imagine Graco will replace the clip or it will cost very little to replace. In the meantime, as long as the harness is tightened properly, it's not unsafe to use the seat harnessed with the clip removed if you wish. The clip provides pre-crash positioning for the harness.

Now, I wish I had thought of that before I drove to the beach in the snow. I really had to remind him once or twice not the slouch once or twice and we were in the car for 4-5 hours because of bad road conditions. I might put it in without the chest clip when we get back though.
