Hey! I need your expertise for a friend of mine. They just bought a 1964 Chevy Malibu as a 3rd family car. She has a 17 mo dd RFing in a Marathon, and she has a 3.5 yr old ds who is right now harnessed in a Evenflo Chase.
His stats are:
He is 41”
14.5-15” torso (he’s in the second slots from bottom in Regent, and top slots in Chase and MA)
37-38lbs
She was thinking of getting a Radian, but is unsure of how it will install with the seatbelts. Right now the Malibu has lap only seat belts. Her dh is going to have lap/shoulder belts installed later when the kids are older. She wants to keep them both harnessed for as long as possible. The seatbelts have a latchplate - anybody have any experience installing a Radian with latchplate lap only seatbelts? Will she need a locking clip on any seat she uses?
She had considered the Apex, but the seat does not have adequate head rests. She had considered another Regent, but there is no possibility of having it top tethered.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks!!!!
