Can some one with a Truefit help me?

Can some one with a Truefit help me. My Niece's TFP's harness got frayed and Tomy sent my sister a new harness however she cant figure out how to put the new one in.

Has any one done it have pictures? Could some one with at truefit take pictures so I could just link the thread to her....I'm not seeing any one in her area to help her and I'm booked and cant drive up and help her.

:question: this is very intriguing to me! i didn't think the harness was replaceable, and i am very surprised they just sent it w/ no instructions ..... i await knowledgeable input.

I guess this is what they sent her

I can peak at my true fit tonight or tomorrow and see if I can make any sense of it.

When I had to replace a malfunctioning crotch buckle, they sent me a special tool to take the panels off. The new buckle set consisted of the buckle and tongs. However, they said there was no way to get the tongs off my existing harness, so I should just replace the buckle. I remember peeking behind the big back panel to check it out, and I was really nervous I wouldn't get it all put back correctly. I don't know how helpful that was...

I've got one out and nekid. Lemme see what I can do.

Yeah, its a whole different beast!

Ok, if she needs more, I can do that, but I think this may do it.

First, it's 1 long strap. You have to take everything off one side (chest clip, buckle) which may be difficult to do, but it's not impossible. So take the side that you DON'T remove everything from and thread it through the yellow harness height adjuster (easiest to do this with it on the #1 or #2 setting) and connect it to the splitter plate on the back.



Take the long end and thread it down through the hole at the hips.


When you get to the bottom side, it's easier to see if you have it UNreclined. Bring it down through the one slot, and up through the other. When you get done, it needs to run under those 2 clips you can see in the picture, but it may not stay if you do that now.


Then catch it on the top side, thread on the buckle tongue and then the chest clip. (I find it easiest to buckle everything at this point to make sure I've got them pointed the right way.) Then push it through the yellow height adjuster, and hook it to the splitter plate. This is where you can make sure the part under the seat is under the clips.

That should do it!

Mine is an older (it expires next year) model. It is the original (not recline, premier, etc.). It seems different than that. I am almost curious enough to go pull it out to look. Almost.

ETA: I didn't catch the TFP designation in the OP. :blushing:
