Just an FYI for those of you watching for them, it had a DOM of 10/10, which didn't bother me, but I wanted to let you all know

Now... To see if I can get it installed tonight after work

Has anyone installed it in the middle row center of a Sienna (04)? (Silly question as I'm sure many of you have.)
Where did you anchor the top tether?

NannyMom · Aug 3, 2011

I've found in the center seat of the middle row, it continues to recline until it's over reclined

It works much better outboard 2nd row though. You can anchor the tether to the seat leg of either of the front seats. Just take off the plastic casing around the leg.

The DOM you got has been the norm for the strollers.com RN's. Totally worth it for the price.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot tonight. Now, which side do I put him on... hmmm.

I usually load from the driver side. so I'll probably do that. but the passenger side has the automatic door! I like having options! LOL!!!

Hey, I've got an OT strollers.com radian question: is that newborn in the Radian photo on strollers.com actually at 45 degrees? There's a lot of stock photos on there, and the one on the 80SL in Metro looks crazy reclined, but the baby looks happy. It's in a captain's chair in a van. Maybe my toddler has made me forget what a Radian looks like at 45 degrees?

That's a great DOM. I loved my 80SL so much.

I've got my radian rfing in the center seat. I called sk and asked for the old boot because it works better in that seat than the new one. Then, I installed with the seatbelt and flipped the vehicle seat forward to tighten the belt a little more, then pushed it back. So far, it's holding. My ds weighs 37 pounds and has been riding in the rfing radian in the center seat for 3 weeks.

I have the old boot too. But I can't get it to sit straight without there being a gap between the Radian and the vehicle seat. And I'm not comfortable with that.

I'll have to go take a look, but I don't think mine has a gap.

I had the gap too in an '06. Didn't matter what I did, how reclined the seat was, the gap remained unchanged.
