I don't have the seat or manual to look at, and someone asked me about this earlier this week.

They are having very limited space for the driver & front passenger in their vehicle, with 2 x 17mth olds RFng in GUIDE 65 seats in the back. The children are walking, 17mth old, excellent head control etc, but not yet 22lb. Can the seats be installed to the more upright angle at this point? Does anyone have one, and can you tell me what the manual says?

The manual says they MUST be fully reclined... how close to 22 pounds are they? If you put on some heavy shoes, a sweater, a good breakfast in their belly's could they be close to 22 pounds? I made the decision myself to put my 14 month old son more upright when he was around 20 pounds naked... but thats a personal decision and one that you can't just tell someone its ok to do...
