Here's what the foam looks like properly installed with the manual tucked under it http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y2...rrent=DCP00306.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch19

In my 2006 Canadian Marathon, I don't think there is a way I could fit the manual under the styrofoam like that, and still have the top of the styrofoam flush with the car seat. The 2 pieces of styrofoam are both the same dimensions and occupy the entire recess. So I just left the manual where I found it, i.e. flat against the base of the seat. Is that bad ?
Ours is the same way. It actually fits into a spot in the back of the carseat.

Thanks! We'll have to try that tomorrow!Hey I have a 2005 Audi A4 and my Britax Boulevard (same size as your Marathon) fits great in the center. The trick is to push the front seats back all the way first and then install the Marathon rearfacing with the seatbelt. The reason you put the seats all the way back is otherwise you don't know where to center it....the Marathon will actually end up fitting right between the two front seats. The downside to this is that the two outboard seats are useless because the seatbelt buckles are covered but for us that doesn't matter. Here is a pic ....let me know if you have other questions....
P.S. You can get a rock solid install with the seatbelt it just takes some muscle!!!
