Need a video or other resource, please

Does anyone have a good video or other resource I can send to three friends (all of whom have been in accidents recently, and all of whom are still using the seats that were involved in the accidents-- two of which totalled the cars) that shows WHY you shouldn't reuse seats that have been in serious accidents?

Saying it alone has not been effective. Showing them that the manuals for their seats state that the seats must be replaced has not been effective. Perhaps a video wouldn't help, either, but I'd like to try. :eek:

Does anyone have a good resource?

I don't have a resource to help, but are they aware that insurance would cover new seats? (Assuming they have insurance.) I know some people are stubborn, but it's difficult to understand someone refusing to replace a seat if they don't have to pay for it.

They all have insurance. :) I'm not sure if any of them tried to use insurance for carseat replacement or not.

I doubt this graphic will do it - but maybe? The point being you can't necessarily tell by looking if a seat is safe.
