Tell me about the Diplomat

I was talking to a Dad at BRU today. He said they had a diplomat. All I know about the diplomat is it has the head wings like the BLVD. I see online it does 35 RF and 40FF and it has the same harness adjuster as the Roundabout. It also has the turn knob like the BLVD. Is the shell height the same as the shell height the same as the ROundabout or the BLVD? What about harness height?

While we're at it, how do shell and harness slot heights compare in the MA and the BLVD? I know the shell of MA is taller than the Roundabout, but what about harness height?

I really need to remember to take my tape measure with me when I may go to BRU :whistle:

The Diplomat is a Roundabout sized equivalent to the Blvd. The Blvd and Marathon have the same shell dimensions, but the Blvd's top shoulder harness position is slightly lower than the Marathon's top shoulder harness slot.

Thank you. The dad said he thought it was the size of the roundabout, but it was still in the box.

btw- I think he's going to return the Diplomat and buy a TF and Avenue.

Good plan. I can't see spending the money on a Diplomat.

The Diplomat is to the Roundabout what the Boulevard is to the Marathon. Just mini-sized. The bigger seats have shells that are 3" taller and top slots about 1.5" higher (25" vs. 28" and 15.5" vs 17", respectively).
