My tech cert is expired, but I had a friend ask me to look at her seat, it wasn't tight. I looked at it, totally not tight. It was in a 2000 Bonneville. I could not get the belts to ratchet and no LATCH. The latch plate also didn't lock when I put it in. I felt the only option was a Locking clip. Problem is I haven't used one for a long time, not since my cert. I put it in the way I thought it should be. She has family that are fire fighters and she is going to check with them. I felt like the only way the seat would be tight at all was to use the clip. The seat is an ETA. She just bought it. I encouraged her to return it for a Britax or True Fit with built in clips. She also made mention that maybe the belts were supposed to ratchet, neither side did. Her DD uses a booster on the other side, I told her to verify with a dealer if there was an issue with the belts, I don't know...
