Question Britax Frontier 85

Guest
I have two kids who are 7 yrs, 56#, 49" and 5 yrs, 59#, 50" We have 4 seats in two vehicles: 2010 Ford Expedition and 2012 Ford F250. We are still using the 5 point harness on our Britax Frontier 85 seats. We are ready to start using the seats as a booster; however, I am unsure as how to install the seats. Do you use LATCH to install? Do you use the top tether as well? It seems like you need something to keep the seat in position. I've looked for videos but can't seem to find good instructions. Can you advise?

While your 7yo would more than likely be fine in a booster, your 5yo could probably use another year or so in harness mode. With that being said. You can use the latch and top tether to secure the seat to the vehicle seat (you do not have to) when in booster mode. Make sure you flip the foot that's under the seat to the back when using in booster mode.:)
