I have it Long Latch Path because Lexi is just 37-38lbs.

Does the Recline bar look ok?

She was just a hair above the bottom slots, it doesn't look like it but she is. I think it's the camera angle. So she has tons of growing room.

Looks great! How tall is Lexi? My DD looks about the same size (similar weight and age). That is a TON of growign room. Do you knwo how much room Lexi has in a MA (for comparision sake)? My DD is abotu half an inch below the top slots on her MA and I'm wondering how she'd fit a Regent.

She is adorable and looks like she loves her new seat. Your siggy pic makes it look more obvious that she is slightly over the bottom slots. She'll get plenty of use out her new seat.

i have on order two madisons, its a lot more girly now, and im glad they extended the latch belt i had to replace it on the two onyx we had in the store, because of the recall. But it looks good, im suprised now they say you must use the recline bar in all positions where before it was kind of iffy if you did or didnt need to use it

She is right at about 40 1/2 inches tall. She has a shorter torso than most I would say. In the FPSVD I just moved her up to the top slots, but I could have left them at the 2nd to top. It just depended day to day whether she was over them or not. So she would have the same room in a Marathon.

1. There was no recall, only an advisory ;) to enhance the safety of the seat.

2. The mandatory use of the recline bar and the different belt path uses are what enhances the seat.

It's all about torso - my DD is and inch and a half shorter than Chameleon's DD and she is dead even with the second from the bottom slots. :eek: My DD is about halfway between the top and second from the top slots in a MA.

The install looks great to me Chameleon! How do you like the LBP LATCH install? I tried it in DH's car and didn't like it, but I didn't like SBP LATCH in his car either. I bet I'd like LBP LATCH just fine in my car. :)

Your DD looks so happy with her new seat!! I have the Madison cover on our Regent right now since the Shannon needed washing and she loves her pink seat. LOL
