I just have a few of questions for the install of our new MA65, here goes:
1.I have used the seat track on the drivers side of my 99 malibu as the anchor for my top tether, does it matter that the strap is on tiny bit of an angle so it pulls the seat a little bit to the drivers side? Its really not much but I just want to be sure that its done correctly.
2.With the top tether tight it pulls the seat into a bit of the wrong angle vertically (again, not much but I would hate to compromise the safety of a safety seat), any ideas on how to fix this problem? We had a towel rolled under our infant seat to get the correct angle as the vehicle seat dips down quite a bit at the back. I have tried this with the MA but I am having a hard time getting the correct angle.
3.Do I have to use the lock off all the time? I have the seat installed in the middle, lap belt only, old fashioned kind that you manually tighten and loosen, it stays pretty tight on the MA but didnt on the infant seat.
Sorry if any of these questions have obvious answers or I havent given the right info to tell whats wrong, I have done a bunch of reading online, read the manual a few times and watched some videos about rfing tethering and install, sometimes it just isnt clear to me, I might be carseat challenged!
Thanks for any help!
