Question Britax install in Toyota Sienna

Hi,

I have installed two britax seats in the middle row captain chairs of our 2014 Sienna. I have a britax frontier and a britax pioneer. The back tether strap on both of these seats come from the britax seats on the top corners of the car seats. The captains chair don’t seem wide enough, so the tether straps end up sliding down the sides of the captains chairs. I’m curious how to install these seats correctly in my van with out the tether sliding down the seats and making them unsafe. What am I missing?

Do you know how to tie a tie? Until you get a tether extender from Britax, use the extra tether strap to tie the tether in a tie. That will hold the tether in more of a Y shape for now. When the tether extender comes, that will move the tether point up, shortening the tether, which means it'll be flatter up higher, so it won't slip off of the sides of the captain's chair.
