| The safety restraint system (seat belts) in the rear seats have a long plastic sleve on the female end, this plastic sleve does not allow proper tightening for a infant and young child safety seat, in order to properly tighten a child seat down you have to cut the plastic sleve off and then twist the female receptical as many times as you can to create a shorter end so that long female receptical will be down in the groove of the seat far enough so that the belt can be pulled tight and the receptical will not hinge on the child seat installation holes. (this is really hard to explain in words, please call or contact me for a better verbal explanation. *ak | |||
