It was my understanding that if a locking clip was needed, it would be included with the seat. I was just re-reading Heather's review of the Cybex Aton in order to get some measurements and noticed all the bolded warnings about making sure to lock the seatbelt because the belt-tensioning plate is not a lockoff. In the comments, I saw that if you have a seat with a belt that does not lock, you're supposed to use a locking clip but that one isn't included with the seat. Weird.
I just looked up the manual and it said that you should contact Regal Lager to obtain a locking clip, but I'm still waiting on some replacement parts that they promised to send me over a week ago (after not responding to my request from a month before that), so I'm a little hesitant to deal with them again. Is the locking clip that they would give me specific to my seat or can I use any locking clip that I can find on Amazon?
We have never needed one before, but I'd like to have one on hand just in case we need one while traveling or something. Both of the convertibles that we just purchased have built-in lock-offs, so they didn't come with a lock-off. If I bought a back-up convertible that didn't have lock-offs, would the locking clip that comes with it be okay to use with our Aton 2?
