Today I got to play with my friend's new E2F! I thought we could use a thread for installs. All pictures below are on the driver side second row seat in a 2016 Honda Pilot with leather seats. It installed easily with both the lap/shoulder belt with locked retractor and with LATCH.
First we have my friend's son, who would like to be identified as "Michelangelo" with the seat extender all the way out. He is 7 years old, about 47" and 50 lbs. He has a long torso and a large head. He is comfortable with the outer buckle position, or at least he didn't complain. The shoulder straps are at or slightly over his shoulders at the second highest position. One notch down caused the headwings to push on his shoulders. The hat is much higher than his head, so he really does have at least 1" between his head and the bottom of the adjuster. I had to move the second row back a couple inches. The E2F is lightly brushing the front seat.
Next we have R who is 15 months old, 25 lbs, and 31". Installed with LATCH. the legroom extender is in the shortest extended position. The vehicle seat is in the same position as for the previous install to show the difference in space it takes up. The extender must be out at least this far for children over 40 lbs.
Edit: Sorry the pictures are huge. Not sure how to fix that.
