Hello, all! After agonizing for some time, we will be getting Britax Regents for our almost 3 year old boys. They are quickly outgrowing their Evenflo Triumphs heightwise and soon, weightwise.
The dilemma now arises with the grandparents car. They have an old Pathfinder. Given the age of the vehicle, it would seem to make sense to put in as safe a car seat as earthly possible. The problem is that their vehicle does not have an anchor (at least not that I can find) to attach the top tether. The boys' Evenflos are not tethered down now with the seat belt installation because I can't find one. Nissan is clueless. With the increased car seat weight, plus boys' weights, I do not want to continue without a tether. In addition, I'm not sure the head rests are sufficient. To top it all off, they do not want to drive our car.
So how can I find a car seat with the following requirements?
-harness greater than 40 lbs.
-harness slot heights greater than 17 inches.
-does not require a top tether
-can provide head support independently of the car's head rests
Does anything like this exist?
Thanks!
