    Installing Britax Boulevard

    Having trouble installing Britax Boulevard in my chevy Cruz, I get it to the correct level in the house on a flat surface then when I put it in the car the level bubble goes all the way to the feet side I had it more in the middle for a 7 month old. I read that you might have to use a rolled up towel, do you think that is what I have to do?

    Hey there!

    Did you change the recline to account for the angle of the backseat of the car?

    As Wendy suggested, you have to get the seat to the correct recline while it’s on the vehicle seat. The backseat is not a flat surface, so the correct recline on a flat surface will not be the correct recline on the vehicle seat.
