A very dear friend of mine is having issues installing her Radian in her 2010 RAV4. She has sent me videos and has even enlisted the help of the local fire hall. She's still not happy with the install and I suggested I might put her in contact with a tech in her area. She's in Vancouver but I'm sure she'd be willing to take a reasonable drive... 30 minutes or so out of the city? Can anyone help?

She can come to me. RAV4 (older model) can be a tough install with the best of seats--and the Radian is not the best of seats for ease of install. She'll probably end up with the seat outboard. Tell her to ring me--318-6597 on the original area code.

I have a 2010 RAV4 and an older RN. What install and where is she trying for? I can play around if you like. I could also meet up with Nicole if that would help.

FWIW, I've found installing seats in my 2010 RAV4 pretty easy.

Just eyeballing it, though, I think a RFg RN might not work outboard -- center would be my 1st try. FFg, she should be able to do center or outboard either side.

AND, just an FYI, it is NOT possible to do a 3 across or a side-by-side install in the RAV4. There is outboard LATCH (no center LATCH) and the seatbelts overlap in a funky way.
