First of all, I remember being told on here that I could install in the center with LATCH, as long as the car seat company allowed. I have a 2004 Pontiac Grand Am. Is this correct?
Second of all, My TrueFit will not install in the center with the lap belt. Nope, not happening. So I installed with LATCH and got a pretty good install. Not exactly "rock the car solid", but more like "I can rock the car with a hair of movement". Keep in mind, this is in the center with LATCH. PLEASE correct me if this is not allowed. My car's instruction manual is kind of plain about LATCH.
Third of all, this thing is HUGE! I don't like that I have to completely look around the back of my car to check blindspots. I used to be able to just looked behind me.
Fourth of all, the removable headrest has to be on in my situation. My poor kido that is going to be using the seat JUST hit 22 pounds, but her head is WAY under the line, and she's only on the very first harness position! I don't like that I have to put on the headrest. :thumbsdown:
Sigh. I don't know about all this. The lock-offs aren't all that great either.
Oh, and I don't think my seat is reclined enough. Isn't this the seat that REQUIRES it to be between 40 and 45 degrees?
