This weekend I installed a Marathon rearfacing outboard and a Keyfit center in my 97 Toyota Camry, both seatbelt installs (obviously).
If the Keyfit is on its base, they touch. That's okay, right? When the seat is out, the base doesn't touch the Marathon.
I can't change position of the Keyfit handle (at least not easily) when it's in the car, but that isn't a problem, right?
The Keyfit was installed first, completely solid. Then the Marathon was installed. Seemed pretty solid, took the Keyfit off the base, and was able to tighten the Marathon a little more (although it was under an inch of movement). Could still put the Keyfit on the base without trouble.
Other bits of info: Using the lockoff on the Keyfit, but not on the Marathon (it's never worked right). I have locking retractors. Marathon is tethered to the front seat leg.
It's not absolutely necessary that they be next to each other, but I really want them to be so one of us can sit in the back if needed. It's also why I got the Chicco instead of something less expensive.
I'm getting them checked on Weds.
Any input? Something I missed?
