Angle adjuster for new Diono seats?

[lgenne]

Is the base of the new Diono seats identical to the Radian? I can't find any pictures or discussion of what they're like RF, or if they use the same RF boot (? or whatever it's called) for RF as the Radian, or if they'll have a way to do a more upright install that doesn't use the AA.

I believe the bases are exactly the same.

Here are pics, I don't know if any changes will be made to the final models with regard to the bases http://carseatblog.com/24246/news-flash-breaking-diono-news-updated-convertibles-higher-limits/

The new Diono convertibles will be essentially the same (same belt paths, same base, etc. but the shell will be deeper on the sides, and it will have a higher weight limit for rear facing on the upper two models (which is the Rainier and Pacifica, I believe) at a fantastic 50 lbs. The angle adjuster will still be needed if there is a desire for a more upright install. The rear facing boot will still be required at all times when the seat is installed rear facing.

HTH!
