Ok, so after much searching my husband and I bought a 2004 Outback Wagon because we liked the safety features of AWD, Onstar, etc. MUCH to our dismay, we discovered that we could not install our Snug Ride in the center seat. So we put our son in the outboard position and ordered the Britax Marathon, which we tried installing today.
After an hour of attempts, (and much swearing) my husband got it installed in the center seat, but it cleary is not right -- the shoulderbelt tilts the seat to the side, its not secure at all.
So we put it in the passenger side via LATCH, and it installed fine, but it is VERY vertical, and really hard to get my son in and out of because of clearance.
We really need this to be in the center seat. I'm going to take it in to a CPS Technician ASAP, but having called the fire and police station, of course the inspectors are off or at a conference. Murphy's law.
So I thought I'd see if any of you had any suggestions, or have dealt with this before. Nothing I could find suggested that it couldn't be done (no glaring compatability problems, that I could find)
Any help is much appreciated.
