Re: Child seats for 2 year old - options?
Not takin' up on what LH says but the newer cars have an anchor like that in the rear window area for when the car seat is facing forward - I like the idea but in our trucks, I would fear A) the seat itself trying to go forward and only the occupants and car seat stopping it because they are restrained "through" the seat - the seat only has it's 4 bolts in the floor so.... not sure what I'm saying but I personally use the 3 point belt in our car, in the rear seat, in the middle, passed through the one slot, with the special "I" shaped retainer that holds the belts from retracting, with a rubber seat protector (anti slide mat) underneath the car seat. I just about stand on it to make it all tight, then I also attach the two side tethers to the mounting points in the crack of the seats. I'd throw on some steel cable and logging chains but usually at this point, the wife pulls me out of the way and says "We got to go!"...
