Britax Advocate leveling in RF question

Hi all. Hoping someone might be able to help ease my frustration.

My husband and I spend a looooong time trying to install 2 new britax advocate cs 70 car seats today. After trying many, many times to get the seat at an acceptable recline for RF we realized that the blue lines on the side of the seat that we're supposed to be able to use for leveling purposes are NOT level. We checked them w/ a leveling tool on a level surface and neither side was level... and as a matter of fact the two sides are totally different from eachother. When one side is level, the other is not. So the problem now is that we can't trust the blue lines so we can't be sure that the seat is between 30-45 degree recline. Uggm I'm so frustrated.

Any thoughts? Ideas?

Thanks!

Do you have the seats in position three?

Depending on the age of your child, you can just eyeball it. From the passenger side of the car, you want the seat to be between 1 and 1:30 on a clock. From the driver's side it's 10:30 and 11.
