I realize this is an old post, but was there ever any resolution?
I am trying to install an Evenflo Maestro seat into a Chevy Colorado Crew Cab and believe I am running into the same problem - the adjustment/tensioner on the top tether strap of the car seat is too large to fit between the back of the truck's rear seat and the wall of the truck, which prevents me from latching the seat in place. My plan was to use the latch connection points + the top tether, but the issue I described above is preventing me from using the top tether anchor.
I believe that Evenflo has a top tether extender that I can order, but all information and pictures that I have found online to this point show that it too has an adjuster/tensioner (I assumed it would be a straight section of strap with the necessary connectors on either end), and unfortunately evenflo's website is short on details, as was the person I spoke with on the phone this afternoon.
Just looking for any thoughts/tips from anyone else regarding installation into a crew cab truck before I consider ordering a part that might not work for my needs.
