I ended up getting DD a MR. And I just loved the one from babies'r'us so I overpaid. And didn't have a coupon. But she grinned like crazy when she saw it so it's all good.
I figured I'd leave in the insert and just move it up, even though it's not supposed to work that way. She needs the support badly. But I'm not quite sure I like how it fits. It's ok, I guess. I'm afraid it's going to slip down and make the slots not line up. She's halfway between the forth and fifth slot. Yikes! Big kiddo. Of course she sitting on the padding too. If I took it out she'd probably be at the fourth slot or just below it.
I did compare the SS2 padding to the MR padding and I definitely think it would be a safe option for her (definitely safer than the MR insert). The slots line up wonderfully. So if anyone has any they are not using, I'd gladly pay a little for it (or does anyone know if you can buy JUST a SS2 insert from graco?)
I haven't installed it yet, but I don't think it will be a problem. My car is pretty easy. Only bad with the radian so far.
Pics!
Believe me, it was HARD passing up on the SS2 because she fits SO well in it, but in the end, I just couldn't do it. I can't tell people to RF to 35 lbs if I turn my 20 lb kid around. I know she's a special case but it just seems wrong to me.
