Recaro Young Sport complaint/concern

I really do love the RYS. Charlie seems comfy, it's solid in the middle (the only one ever), and it's very supportive. But the crotch strap is ridiculous. The buckles actually buckle between his legs, instead of above them. He sits on the crotch buckle and it pinches his thighs. He doesn't complain, but he's got small bruises there. Now, he bruises easily, but bruises near my child's genitalia concerns me for multiple reasons.

Is there a longer strap I can buy? Is there even another location for the strap like with the Regent? I haven't checked, and i don't have the manual.

I need to uninstall it to move the straps and headrest to the top position, so I'll check then. But i just can't believe it's sooo short.

Did you remove the cushion inlay/seat pad? Do you think he'd still have enough padding if you did? It's optional and may help the buckle fit better.

Here's the manual. :)
