Does anyone have any experience with a good combination seat and the Buick Enclave?
ADS | |
I have a GMC Acadia, and if I am not mistaken, the headrests should be very similar, if not the same as the Enclave. I am able to remove the headrests from my 2nd row captains chairs. It's a little tough at first, but once you figure out how it works it's not that bad. I had to take it out to get a good FF install with my RA and MA, but had no problem with it interfering with my FR.
It's been a while, but I think I got these directions from this site somewhere...
1) under headrest are two metal posts each shaft goes into a black plastic grommet.
2) Easier with cloth, but can be done with leather if nervous try on dealer demo and teach them as well. Facing the headrest tackle one post then another.
3) Gently push fabric/leather down metal shaft till you can see a tiny metal c-clip. One might have to tug it side to side to get the clip trough the hole cause clip is larger than the hole. It fits into an indent on the "left edge only" of each post. The clip can spin freely. It is hard to push fabric/stuffing down all this way maybe 3". Use free hand if you have one to open up c-clip with one finger and prop the side up slightly over indent. Now the other side is done with slightly less room to get in there. When you release the other shaft the rest should easily pop out. The flashlight helps you see what is happening unless you got the dual sunroofs.
4) now you can store it in the back or turn it around but it does not now firmly affix because the indents are on the wrong side and the padding doesn't let it insert all the way in. The car seat fits much better now
What seat do you have your 11 month old in? I have the Marathon that I am planning on using RF, but I don't know what I am going to do when I put her FF. Just looking for suggestions on seats Thanks
