Baby #2 is due in 3 weeks so we turned DD's (2-1/2 yo) Roundabout FF and moved to the driver's side from center, which was easy, and it's solid as a rock. Then came the Snugride, which fit fine center w/ lap only back in the day, but with the shoulder/lap combo with sliding buckle is very, very loose! I'm 200 lbs pregnant and putting all my weight on while DH did the locking clip and we could turn the base SIDEWAYS when we were done. :(
I did read where Julie suggested using the built in locking mech of the shoulder belt rather than the clip but I don't want to have to re-install for tipping. Any way to get this Snugride tighter with the clip? Carseatdata.org had one person with a 2000 Saturn SL2 (ours is an 02) with a "great fit" on the pass side so wondering how they did it? Maybe a noodle? Mighty tite?Any ideas welcome!
TIA,
Kendra
