I bolt in an extra lap belt to secure the seat.(you need to take the seat out and bolt in the existing seatbelt bolt points) I also use the seat belt as per the installation instructions.When I go overseas I take my aussie car seat and the lap belt and I use shackles to attach it to the ISO fix points.The seat is mounted as solid or loose as I want it to be. Just installing it as per manufacturers method is very loose.The only issue I sometimes wonder is that by mounting it a bit loosely may actually be better than mounting it more solidly in an accident as the give will reduce G forces.I also use a foam rubber Yoga mat you buy at Kmart (the red and blue rolls) under the whole seat to protect the seat. Those Kmart yoga mats are brilliant as it stops it sliding around also. Edited 08/02/14 09:52 AM by turbotrana 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
