I did a check for someone today who has a new RXT to be used for a newborn. Those padded harness covers are HUGE! My older radians have ones that are a good size, but these new ones not only have very thick padding, they are very long, going above and below the chest clip. I seriously doubt they would fit properly with a newborn, and definitely wouldn't curve at the shoulder very well.
In the manual it says: Always utilize harness pads and attach them as shown.(Fig. 1A). This is at the top of page 33 of this manual, but the photos of the harness pads in the manual are the old type and not these massve ones:

Thoughts? I thought it might come apart so you could use half of it for a newborn, and all of it for an older child, but no, it's all one piece.
