Looking for radian pics that were on here a while back

I've been searching through old posts and can't find what I'm looking for! A while back (at least 2 or more months ago) someone had some pictures of their son in a Radian and one had the SKJP chest clip and the other had the Britax clip but the pics were exactly the same except for the clips, so it was easy to tell the difference between the fit of the harness with each one.

I'm trying to point out to my husband how the fit is better with the Britax clip but it's hard for him to tell. He likes the Radian clip because of how strong and sturdy it is, but it kinda drives me nuts because of how it pulls the harness so close to her neck, and it doesnt sit very smooth down her abdomen either and kinda pulls funny because of the clip. I think if I could point out the pics side by side I could show him the difference better.
Anyway, do you know who had those pics, or if it's you, can you please post them again? Even if it wasn't you originally who posted them, if you have your own pics that show that, can you share?

I took these photos last week when I switched the clips on my Radian. They might help you out :)
The seat wasn't installed, but leaned up against a chair at the time.

Sorry, there's not more of the Britax -- the rest didn't come out clear & dd was getting really fidgety. But trust me, it's a much smoother belt path on my dd, no warping. DH finds it so much easier to secure her than the old one which pinched her or her clothes.

I placed the old clip against my own breast bone. That thing is HARD and Ungiving. No way would I want her slamming against it and hoping for it to open in a crash incident. :(

Thank you Arly, those are the exact ones I was looking for!
Also thank you Morganthe, those ones are great too!

Do I have to get the Britax clip online? Will Babies R Us or USA Baby have them?

Unless you can find a cheap expired Britax carseat at a thrift shop or in the trash, your best bet is to visit Britax.com to either order online or do a telephone order. Shipping is what will hurt. It's around $7 ... but there was someone on here who had done a mass order, so you might search previous threads.

Member "elle7715" did a group order of Britax chest clips about a month ago. I think she ordered 15 chest clips, but I'm not sure if or how many she has left. You might want to send her a PM and see if she has any more chest clips available. She charged $5 for the clip and shipping.

Here's a pic of my son in his Radian with the Britax clip. Sorry, I never took any pics of the old chest clip for comparison:
