Infant Child Seat Fit Check Nuna Pipa lite rx with RELX base

Our BRITAX seats are the same - up to 40# on the latch anchors and seatbelt after that

 

Meanwhile a lot of us grew up sitting in the bed of a truck where our parents would yell to set down in the bed and not on the rail if we got on a road faster than 55mph.
And safety in a car, well shit. That’s just not sitting in the front seat. Most of the time it was spent sitting in the back of a wagon with our legs crossed or flipping over the seats. LOL…
I was at a friends once and my mom called because I was not home and it was after dark. I had a sister named Jenny and this friend just happens to have a dog named Jenny also. So my mom calls and my friend said they could not talk because Jenny fell out of the bed of the truck and hung up. I get home a little while later to find my mom losing her shit trying to track down my sister. I was like Jenny is all fucked up. Then my sister arrived and we sorted it all out!! Lol, good times!

 

Honestly man. Your best bet is to go by the nearest firehouse and ask them to give you a class on installing your baby seat. I was a firefighter and we used to teach classes to new parents on how to properly secure a child seat.

 

Keep in mind the 2 year requirement is only a minimum recommendation. You are not required to change to forward facing after 2 years. Rear seat facing is safest and you should always attempt to stay rear facing until the child exceeds the weight or height limit (which ever comes first) on the specific seat for rear facing limits. It may look like they're uncomfortable after 2 years with their legs scrunched up but it's actually much more comfortable for them, and much safer. Just go by the weight/height limits on the seat itself before switching to forward facing. But yes, 2 years would be the minimum that is recommended. I was a certified car seat installer for many years and have heard a lot of myths and seen some terrible installs. Install with the seat belt tightly and keep rear facing for as long as the seat allows (if possible in your situation) - that is the safest route.

 

Did you try the install yet? We are looking at the same car seat for my double cab.

 

did you end up getting one? My wife and I are expecting in about two months and we got ours today. I can try to fit mine later today.
