Can someone help me reassemble my Boulevard?

I recently removed the cover from my Boulevard to clean it. I took the foam pieces out of the shell and put them up where the kids couldn't reach. It all looked very clear to me as I was taking it apart. Now, I'm trying to put it back together and I'm a little confused about the foam....

There is the EPS foam, and I totally get where that goes. There are two additional pieces of foam that I'm having trouble with. The seat foam looks like it should go right under the baby's bottom and the back foam has slits in it that the straps have to go through. My problem is that when I have have the back foam lined up with the slots for the straps, there is a large gap in the lower back area where there is no foam. Is it supposed to be this way? I don't remember it looking like that. It seems like to would make it uncomfortable to sit in! I'm probably just over thinking this, but if anyone can give me some guidance, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

The 2 pieces probably go in the rectangular spaces under where the childs legs go.

If you are able to pake pics and post them using photbucket or something like that as ahost that may help us to.

Although, I think I get it now since I've had some sleep....;)

I guess that back foam has to move up with the adjustable headrest and the harness straps. I still think its weird that there is that gap at the bottom. You can really feel it through the cover. I'm thinking now that that is just the way it is, but I'd like to make sure I'm not forgetting something or missing something.

Thanks!

if you lower the headrest to where the foam at it's lowest matches the slots, you will find it works... the foam likely gets raised along with the slots when you raise the headrest.

Yes. The foam is basically held in the correct spot by your straps. When you put the head rest cover back on, it will help hold it in place. Then when you put the straps in, it will hold it there. Remember to tuck the foam behind the main cover though.
