So apparently my impossible RN install really is impossible. I got it tight and it stayed that way for quite a while but ever since I took it out to wash it and reinstalled it, it keeps coming loose. I'm done. I can't trust the RN in that seating position so I'll have to replace it.
I can either put my 5 yr 4 mth old daughter in a booster and let CJ (4) ride in her FR until I can get him something else, or I can put CJ in a Scenera I have. He's right at the top slots and weighs 38 lbs.
WWYD? Put dd in a booster for a while, or DS in a seat he is right at the shoulder straps of. I'll have to sell or trade my RN to get him a new seat. I don't have the funds to just order one.
Also, what do I replace it with? The FR 85 works there, but it's a pita to install and makes it difficult to fold the seat down to access the 3rd row which we have to be able to do. It also makes it so I have to buckle DD (7 1/2) booster for her because it's so tight. All my kids get bad head slump in the GN so that's out. I hate the continuous harness on the Maestro and the kids don't like how close it is on their necks. I may have a trade for a BLVD. I know it's not the best option to get a convertible when he'll only use it FFing, but it has to go in that position and allow a booster to buckle next to it and the other seat to fold. He's at the 2nd to top harness straps on the RN so I'm hoping he'll have about as much growing room in the BLVD. What am I missing?
