After wrestling with our new XT (which may be heading back to hipmonkey next week)to get a solid rf install, my dh and I are a lot more interested in the CA. I just re-read all of these threads, and was wondering if it has been determined if the CA does have essentially the same shell as the AOE, but without the base.
If so, I'd love to see some rf & ff install pics of the AOE without the base to see if this style of seat might fit in my in my van. The high base seats, like the Britax convertibles, fit fine, but the no base Radian looks like it won't work rf. The CA looks somewhere in between and might be an option (even though dd is over 41" tall, but perhaps I'll ignore the rf height recommendation as has been discussed.)
