Angle adjuster question

Would it be prudent to go ahead and order an angle adjuster for a backseat that looks like this:

I'm just sitting here worrying that the seat is going to get here and be super reclined, then DH is going to be all angry-butt and ask why I would order a seat that doesn't work well. But if I order the adjuster now and turns out we totally don't need it, then I'll feel like I wasted my money. Thoughts? And anyone know where they're in stock?

With the leather and the fairly flat seat, I think I would.

I'd order it. Those seats look pretty flat. And that's a small amount to not hear DH complain about your $200 Car seat purchase!

Okay, so Amazon doesn't have them right now. Any other sites? Preferably with free shipping, though not necessary, if they would just ship here at all.

I've been waiting since before Christmas on Amazon. So, if you're in a hurry, I'd skip that!

Know people had ordered them from Diapers.com, but don't see them there now.

Diapers.com wants $21.14 to ship to me! Are you freaking kidding me?

That is flat though, and I'm sure leather makes it difficult. I've gotten 17 degrees in my older JGC with cloth seats though.

With a car that old, you should ve able to brace without a problem. You can use that to adjust the angle. That said, if you can find the aa, I would probably order it - you could always sell it on swap if you don't need it.

Bracing to adjust the angle is allowed as long as the bottom on the RN stays in contact with the seat, right? That just might work.... Thanks for the suggestion.
