Is it ok for the "alligator" LATCH connectors to be "upside-down"?

I installed my new MA FFing recently and realized that because of the LATCH bars, the LATCH connectors have to be upside-down to work right. I always thought they were "supposed" to only go right-side-up (thicker part on top, thinner part on bottom). Does Britax make an exception because of the LATCH bars? Or am I just dreaming and that was never really a rule?

There's a way to flip them so they're right side up.

Someone will be along with the video soon I'm sure - I don't have it bookmarked at work.

I believe the instructions are in the manual too.

They do need to be right side up. The instructions are in the manual and the video is on Britax's site. It's a simple fix, though. :)

Pull back the cover over the rf beltpath. Route both connectors to the center, feed one through the other and route them back out through the opposite sides.
