OK, so I have in my kit....
2 rolls electrical tape
8 pool noodles cut to 18 inches length
1 large exacto knife
1 small exacto knife
5 locking clips
20 check lists/check sheets
20 RF hand outs
20 FF hand outs
20 Booster hand outs
1 measuring tape
1 LATCH Manual (Thanks Quassee and MommyCat!!)
2 Dorel Recall Kits (for the latest recall)
1 replacement tether anchor (universal)
1 Thermos to fill with coffee/tea
1 Thermos cold jug for juice/water
1 reflective safety vest (Ok, I'm working on this one....)
10 pens



Anything I'm missing?

I have a road side check with the RCMP tomorrow, and again on the 20th, and then a full clinic WITH road side check on the 2nd. I have noodles and locking clips to replenish with as I use them, just not in the kit. The kit is in a rubber maid bin.

I carry a multi tool with me. Like a cheapie Swiss army knife thingy with the multiple little tools tucked inside.

Hand sanitizer is a must ime. And parents love it when you stop to clean your hands before touching their seat/kid.

A printed list of recalls from the TC site (last time I checked the latest dorel recalls weren't listed yet, hopefully they are added now).

Sunscreen, sunhat, sunglasses for you.

Bandaids in case you slice your hands. Nothing is worse than bleeding anywhere near someones seat/kid. Freaks parents out.

IDK...I just know that some cars could be kind of gross. I wouldn't want to dig around in the cracks of my car, if it wasn't mine!! We eat in the car and who knows what all is in the nooks and crannies in there. I'm sure there is worse than mine out there. Medical style would be less obvious I guess. Big yellow kitchen gloves would kind of stand out!!

As far as gloves go, I wonder if some garden-style gloves would work instead of latex or kitchen gloves. The rubber dipped knit ones are comfy, would help with gripping/grabbing belts through RF belt paths, and would protect your hands from getting banged up more than thin rubber ones.

IANAT, though. :)
