what car do you drive?

I am making a list of possible IRL places to put the connector strap in various cars for my work as a tech.

TIA!

ETA for others benefit- we tether to the back of the front seat track in our 98 Corolla. Either side of the track works.

Great idea!

I have a 2002 Mercury Mountaineer. My Roundabout is installed in the center seat and is tethered (using the D-ring) to the seat track on the left side under the passenger seat.

we have a 2004 Toyota Sienna minivan, and we run the tether under the seat and use the official tether point at the back of the seat (captains chair). I have heard that Britax no longer suggests this method though.

We have a 2005 Sienna, and tether to the metal leg of the front passenger seat, right where it connects to the floor. We did the same in our 2000 Sienna. There's a plastic piece over the metal, so we maneuver the d-ring strap under that piece, so that it is tightened right around the metal part, and not over the top of the plastic.

1988 VW Jetta - Tethered to the front passenger seat leg

2001 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport - Also tethered to the front passenger seat "leg". I call it the leg, since it is where the seat attaches to the frame of the car, but it doesn't really look like a leg. I shoulld probably take a picture of it. It was kind of a pain to get the D ring wrapped around it, but it works just fine.

I drive a 97 Nissan Sentra ~ RA in the center back seat, tethered using the D~ring which is wrapped around the front passenger seat rear leg thing which is closest to the back passenger side door. I hope that made sense.
