Hello,
We have been using the Frontier 85 SICT in Harness mode and I want to switch it to Booster mode. My son is 75 lbs and is 4'7 inches tall. Just want to make sure I am understanding the manual. Tried to call Britax but cannot get thru as usual. It says one can just place the car seat on the seat and then fasten the seat belt without using the latch connector. The seat is just loose in car unless the seat belt is actually fastened?? Or- one can use the latch connectors and the tether if you choose?
The purpose for not using the latch connectors is one can move the seat more easily? Is it not safer to just use the latch connectors?
Then my other question is how does one get the Harness off. I followed directions and unhooked it from the yoke on the back of the seat and pulled straps thru to the front. Now where do they go?? This does not seem clear in the manual. It would make it easier if they mentioned front, back bottom of seat so we would know what to do. LOL. Help!!! Another problem is friends are teasing him about using this seat since they all have just a small booster. Is this seat any safer than a little booster??
Also, I need another booster seat for my son in his dad's vehicle. Someone was so kind to give me a suggestion previously but I cannot find that post since it was months ago. He uses the Bumble Bum now in his dad's car but he says its very uncomfortable. Thanks and love this site!!!! You all have been so helpful for carseat issues.
