thanks for the swift replies! I probably should have added, he isn't my little one! I don't have any children of my own yet, as I am still in university for Engineering. I care for him and his sister (who is almost outgrown her blvd 70 CS RF
and she is SIX, but wears a 3x and has a very short torso) for about 20 hrs/week. I am trying my best to ensure their safety in both my car and theirs. I just rescued from their house last week both a shield booster (Cosco Explorer DOM 11/2000 ..need I say more) and a Century Next-Step which had a 2005 expiry, both of which where in use by these kids.. replaced with Radian65 FF for 2.8 yo (latched and teathered with safe-stop, I'm NOT a tech but it was rock solid!) and Turbobooster for 6yo as their parents refuse to put the 6yo back in a harness despite the fact that my left leg probably weighs more than she does. Also, I was planning to cut up the fabric on the outdated seats I 'swapped' them for and then throwing them out in a million pieces.. anyone have suggestions on how to trash these things so no other little ones are subjected to them? ( I'm thinking someone will snatch them from my garbage haha). I think I may go with a RXT as I like the headings to keep them in the proper position when sleeping and avoid neck pain, but the install is hands-down the most frustrating thing i've ever dealt with, which is why I was avoiding it. The Foonf looks amazing, I can't wait to meet it, I wish it was out already! The 6yo sister is very very small for her age ( still 1in shell above her head in blvd, not headwings I made sure
so I think if her brother follows her growth patterns at all I will get him to 7-8 in the RXT.. I was thinking about ordering two of whichever seat i get for 2.8yo for the 6yo when she sprouts a bit because she hasn't grown for quite some time, but for now she is very comfortable in the blvd 70 CS, and where the seats are only installed 2-3x per week, the Britax installation is a God-send, which is why I was hoping to sneak two across the border.. hehe. I've reviewed the RXT install opinions on here and it seems that after some practice it will become a piece of cake? it would certainly be better to pick one of those up at BRU locally if you guys think it'll get easier/faster to install after a while rather than waiting on the Foonf, or breaking laws! Just to give you some idea of my past seats that I've owned and installed in the 08 accord:
First Years True Fit
Britax Marathon Classic
Britax Frontier
Britax Boulevard 70 & 70CS
Peg 30/30
Graco SS
Graco sungride22
Graco Nautilus
Evenflo Triumph Advanced
Alpha Omega Elite (not used as a booster, don't worry!)
