I got the Regent today, for $200 including tax. The DOM is June 07, which is not great but since I doubt Avi will be able to use the seat for 4 years, I am not terribly upset about losing 6 months of the seat's "life". I installed the seat using the LBP and recline bar because it is a pre-advisory seat. However on the Britax web site it says to follow the new instructions and request the enhancements. I had no problem installing the seat with the LBP, and I am planning on trying with the SBP and seeing whether i can get the Regent and DC SBS in my car. It is pretty cold/rainy today so I only took a few pics from inside the car, but hopefully it will warm up in the next few days and I can "play" some more. I put the harness on the 3rd slots down but I think Avi might need them moved up. He is with his parents on vacation right now but I will check it out when they return and take more pictures.
Seat installed with LBP in my 08 Corolla:
Space between back of the Regent and the actual car seat. Is the recline bar in the right position?
DOM:
Space left in the rest of my backseat.
Tether clip, should it be clipped the other way? Is there a pocket for the extra webbing that I did not see?
Height of Regent next to middle headrest all the way down. Better visibility than if I had the usual headrest on the seat.
Leg room with front seat all the way back
Leg room with front seat pretty far forward
Any tips/suggestions would be much appreciated!!
Thanks
