This afternoon, I was faced with hooking a Parkway booster next to a center installed Radian in the rental Car -- Basic model Ford Focus.
(Love
the ease of LATCH & yes, I checked to see the Owner's manual to determine if the center position could be used in it, which it did )
So I was trying to determine the best way to hook in my dd's friend into the booster seat & tight quarters. My fingers couldn't manage the buckle under the latch connectors.
Figured out how to make a booster easier to secure
-- so simple it was STOOPID!
Fasten seatbelt over Booster seat. (wiggle it, if needed. )
Have lap belt as loose as can be.
Child easily slides up into it, then sits in seat.
Pulled lap belt tight & she ducked under the shoulder belt.
Snugged it down & threaded through belt guide.
DONE! :thumbsup:
If I wasn't dissasembling the whole thing to turn in the car, I probably would have just reversed the entire process to avoid unhooking the belt. :shrug-shoulders:
Anyway, thought it might help someone who's sick of puzzling seats & pinched fingers.
