Question on seats with more than one loop for harness length

crunchierthanthou · Dec 21, 2008

as in, rear facing seats with a smaller setting for tiny babies- do you route the webbing to the front or back of the splitter plate?

back (left) or front (right)?

with going to the back, you can have visual confirmation that it's properly hooked. with the front, it seems to lie better.

I'm pretty sure the Snugride manual shows it how you've pictured on the right.

Yeah I am pretty sure that the SS1 says you have to have it in the front too, like the right.

Well, I wasn't going to tell you to RTFM.

But it does have the answer

I do it the way on the right. Glad to hear I'm doing it right

. The other way just seems weird.

Graco says do it the way it is on the right

Evenflo says do it the way it is on the left

And the True Fit is the way on the left as well.

So overall, read the manual. I used to be able to remember Graco no problem until other seats started having the double loops and doing it differently. Now I often have to double check the manual depending on how long it's been since I've switched a particular seat. :thumbsup:

If I had know about that extra loop

I would have used the one on the left (back).
