It's not necessarily the Boulevard, it's the rear facing lock offs. I am following the manual, using the farthest lockoff from buckle. It WILL NOT clasp. It does but as soon as you lightly touch it, it flips open. I remember this problem with our Marathons and even the Companion. I have never gotten very far with that lockoff. Fortunately we had LATCH in the other vehicles and it didn't matter but now we no longer have a LATCH equipped vehicle.
UGH! I was trying to do it earlier when we picked up our new van, and the van's owner was saying the plastic pieces (the lockoffs!) were junk, we should just break them off. Um, no ... but I do want to get this seat in tight, like we had our other seats. I have never had a problem with the FF lockoffs, they make the "click" sound and are very secure.
Also, these seats are leather - should I put something down on the seat so it's not slippery? It doesn't seem like it'll be a problem but I wanted to ask.
Thanks!! I can take pics if necessary - if you want to see how I have it installed so far.

Just remind yourself that the dents WILL go away once the seats are out for a few days. They're just dents.
