  • Learn how to switch the LATCH strap from the rear-facing belt path to the forward-facing belt path so you can easily switch your carseat from rear-facing to forward-facing with very little effort. Kecia also shows you how to move the LATCH connector strap from the rear-facing belt path to the forward-facing belt path.
    Having the LATCH belt under the bar on the Graco 4Ever-based carseats makes it so it doesn't get twisted or turned upside down in the belt path as you change it. The 4Ever, Extend2Fit, and many of the seats based off their design have made it to the CarseatBlog Recommended Carseats and Editors' Picks List for years: carseatblog.com/safest-recomm....

    This is literally the only video including the ones made by graco that actually explains how to do this. It is not even addressed properly in the printed directions. Thank you!!!!!!!

      Seriously, the graco instructions were absolutely useless compared to this video.

      Agree. The manual, the Graco channel itself and several other videos did not help me even slightly. This video showed me what to do. Thank you!

    I was using the seat belt forever cause I could not figure out how to move the strap. Thank you for this video. You should be paid by Graco for my frustration prior to watching your video.

    Thank you!!!! Just bought this for my grand daughter and nowhere in the instruction book is “how to move the lower latch straps”. Greatly appreciated!

  • @rebeccaboucher5414
    @rebeccaboucher5414 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Thanks so much. Its beyond me why the maker of these car seats don't make a video. Do none of them have children and use their own product? The user manual instructions that comes with the carseat skips the whole part about what you actually have to do to move the latch belt under the cushion. This was super helpful.

    BEST tutorial/explanation for the forward facing setup. Not even the Graco instructions are this clear, straight forward and easy. Thank you.

    Fits perfectly rear-facing in our truck, which has a slightly smaller back seats. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx6_FKRYB2ClSPRyjcd8HptiCS3EiQoNX4 Feels as comfy and plush as our Graco Contender carseat

    @richj1134 ปีที่แล้ว

    Watch this if you need to convert a Graco from rear to forward facing. Shows how to get everything in correct position. Clearest explanation and visuals I could find. Manual is close to useless on this subject. Great job.

  • @JessyA86
    @JessyA86 ปีที่แล้ว

    Gah I feel so dumb. I used to have one where the metal bar came up (through some annoying, impossible to remember process). I guess you could just shimmy it! I was about to pull out the power tools lol! Thanks

  • @AA-fz1ce
    @AA-fz1ce ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi question !! How do I know if I take out that padding white colored padding ? There’s the normal padding under. Is it for infants or rear facing ?? I don’t see you had it in to begin the video and some people I see remove it

  • @timb9694
    @timb9694 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Is there a way to swap sides? When it was rear facing it was great because I could tighten the strap from outside the car now that its forward facing I have to go into the other side of the car to tighten the strap

    • @Flipper86
      @Flipper86 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, the metal bar prevent this. If you keep the seat pad pulled back, you should be able to tighten from either side (although it may be easier from one side or the other.
      The video notes state the bar is to help keep the straps from getting twisted.
