I'm sorry if this is a silly question, but I just got my first new non-BMW car since DS was born and I need instal help. In any BMW I had the top tether strap going underneath the headrest and then hooked into the anchor. Now we got a cadillac and it seems that the strap fits better going AROUND the headrest on either side (this is on a MA if it makes a difference- but the seat that will "really" be there is a RN). If I put them under the headrest, the straps would sorta be pinched in. Is around the headrest acceptable? I can get it tight this way.
As a side note, new vehicle has a third row, and the seat that "moves" to allow entrance to the third row is passenger side outboard, the place where DS's seat has always been. Is it much less "safe" to move to drivers side outboard? I will try center first but if that blocks the passenger outboard seat's ability to flip forward (hoping not, since the RN is so narrow) is drivers side ok positioning in a RN?
Thank you!
