Britax replacement harness straps and crotch strap/buckle

Unregistered · Jan 28, 2009

Just an FYI....

My blvd has a DOM of 5/14/2008 and I recently ordered a new crotch strap/buckle b/c a mouse got into my car to clean up the fruit snacks my daughter left there and chewed on the strap. I ordered just the crotch strap/buckle only to try it when I was trying to leave for work and it didn't work with the existing harness straps. I called back (I did call the first business day after ordering the buckle to verify I ordered the right part) to find out that late in 2008 they switched harness straps and buckle to a new kind with longer prongs (if that's what you call them). Anyway, when I explained the situation to Britax they graciously decided they'd send me free of charge the new crotch buckle/strap and matching harness straps.

this is probably the switch from one click to two click buckles that Britax did in late 08.

This is what Recaro needs to do.

except that it was early 08. The change was announced in early February and all 03/08 and later seats that I've seen have the double click buckle.

ooh, you're right. It was earlier than I thought.

My blvd has the 2 click buckle but the new buckle I got as a replacement doesn't work with the straps. Britax says the prongs on the new harness straps are longer than those prior to late 2008.
