Ok, so I know we don't NEED an XT vs. a Radian80, but I love the extra protection the head wings provide. Also, every other month, we make the six hour trip back to NY to visit family, and DD sleeps almost the entire way there. I just think she will be more comfortable being able to rest against the wings, without her head slumping.
DH is convinced the head wings are somehow unsafe. I showed him the video of the side crash, where the poor kid's head bounces off the side of the door, but he believes that a child's head bouncing off the wings won't be much better, since they have the steel alloy framing inside. He want's an 80 and have us just use the support pillows. (the ones that won't interfere with the function of the car seat) I'm not an expert here, lol. Anyone have any additional information that I can tell him to ease his mind? Thanks for your help!
