How To Install A Belt Fitted 123 Car Seat Correctly

Although this channel is mainly about rear facing car seats, I also use it for general car seat information, and I think it's important to address common errors.
One of the most common mistakes I see is with these 123 car seats. A lot of people route the seat belt incorrectly. An incorrectly fitted car seat can be very dangerous, it will not do the job it was designed to do in a crash.
If you have one of these car seats (or a similar one, there are lots of different ones available), please watch this video to make sure yours is fitted correctly.

This is my go to when having to provide transport for our grandchildren, I only had to watch it a couple of times and understood what I needed to do to ensure correct fitting . If only all other presenters were as clear and concise as this 👍🏾😀

Thank you so much for this video . Finally someone who took the time to give a straight forward tutorial on how to fit the seat in. ❤

Thank you for this video! The car seat was moving because we had installed it the wrong way. Also, it was difficult to understand the installation process from the picture on the car seat. With your video, I finally could install it the correct way so it stopped moving and it's fixed on the seat ❤ Thank you so much for this video! 😊

Thank you for showing this video. My friend has one for her daughter (2 years old) and I’ve always felt is incorrectly installed when put in my car. Will definitely save the video to fit correctly for future journeys x

Thanks for this, just got a cheap car seat for rare use in a second car and it's not isofix (old car) it was a 123 by halfords and after reading the instructions which were as clear as a muddy puddle, I cobbled it together and it turns out I did it wrong. This has put me right.. thank you :)

Thanks! Extremely simple tutorial! Was starting to get a little frustrated until I come across this video!

Thank you for the very in formative video as I have just recently changed cars and have issues trying to attach via Isofix without ripping the rear seats apart (which from frustration trying was very close). Seeing how its done rather than reading the small hand book that came with our child seat has made it so simple to install which means we spend more time with our grand daughter than spending time scratching heads, muttering and shaking our fists at the moon.

Thank you for making this video my mum just got one of these for my niece when we take her out. Much to my objections on how they arnt great.
At least I'm now able to show her it definitely isn't installed correctly.

Really really helpful! I much prefer isofix but I need to take two of these type of car seats on a plane (and I don’t want to take my expensive ones!) so I’m purchasing two lower priced car seats and the seatbelt fixing was making me nervous but I feel much better having seen this. Thank you so much 😊

Relief ...finally a video that is so concise....

[marleneamara]

Thank you! This is better than the official instructions from the car seat

[GloriosusMiles]

Thank you for this! I’ve used this and another of yours to successfully install two different seats.

Your content is really well put together, simple, effective and easy to follow visually. Makes much more sense than the manufacturers instructions and videos! Much appreciated!

These is very loud and clear...thank you very much and may God bless you even more❤

Thank you for posting this video, it helped us fit the car seat properly and safely.

Thanks, I couldn’t figure out how to get the car seat installed overseas in a Citroen that didn’t have the ratcheting lock seat belt. This video helped me immensely

[seya]

Simplest tutorial I’ve seen online. Thanks a lot 🙏🏾

[stefedwards]

[UnMeilleurMonde]

ive been trying to see how to install car seat last hours. i have those car seat and have been installing them wrong. thank u so much

We are using an Evenflo Symphony all in one. The manual shows installation of the seat belt you way you first showed, the wrong way. Just threaded in one hole and out the other, pulled tight. On the seat itself, though, it actually says "lap belt goes here" on the sides of the seat, the way you showed as being the correct way to install it. I'm not sure where to put the shoulder strap after installing it your way, and the straps bunch up the padding on the seat. I'm a little confused.
