Grrr. I was out for the day on a little road trip with my kids, sister, and niece. We were getting everyone in the car to leave when I couldn't tighten Elsa's harness. I tried several times but they wouldn't budge. I couldn't figure out what it was hung up on and really didn't want to uninstall It considering I had two other kids already buckled up on either side.
When I finally did give up and take it out I found that the splitter plate was hung up on the seatbelt and my pulling on it had actually punctured it. The hooked edge of the plate poked a hole right through. So now my middle seatbelt is useless. Thank goodness I have middle LATCH, at least.
But since she's 45 lbs LATCH won't really be an option much longer so now I have to put her outboard. Her being so young and FF I really liked having her in the middle.
Lesson learned, I guess. If it doesn't go, just take it out.
