Damn car seat

posted 8th Feb
Okay, we just attempted to install the car seat/base.
But there is NO lower anchor for the clip:



We felt underneith the seats and pulled them down and checked behind them and looked on top of the rear window shelf but there is nothing.

So what exactly do we do?

You use the seat belt. Not all cars have those, just new cars for the most part.

Install it with the seat belt.

I do that anyway, I hate the latch system.

My car seat doesnt have it either, I use the seat belt, and then the extra piece on the carseat where it WOULD hook in to the anchor I have in between the back of the carseat and seat, if that makes any sense lol

Well duh, I get that you use the seat belt, but it just looks wrong with out locking it in with the clip and anchor.

It's a '93 Mercury Sable.


ETA: No meaning to sound like a bitch  

So it's okay that it doesn't latch?

Well, that is what you have to do.   Either that or get a new car.
