Is this what I would use to tighten a seat belt (or stop a retractable belt) for child car seat installation?

I don't know what all these other people are talking about but I bought this product to use for this purpose and it did not work at all. I do have a convertible car seat so maybe that is the issue, but this was not a good fit for me.

I use it on my driver's seatbelt to prevent the "cross piece" from rubbing my neck. Once installed, after use most of the belt retracts up to the clip - which is great because I don't have to re-adjust every time I use it. However, a different size driver would have to undo the clip before using. I'm not sure about the child car seat ..... but the good thing is that it's metal & won't break.

Yes, I think this is what it was made for originally. I remember using something just like this on my daughters car seat a long time ago.
2078086
Yes. I remember using this exact thing with a sibling's carseat. I think they use to come with some seats.

I'm sorry I don't have children, so I can't address your query. Love it for my own safety belt though!

You can install this seat using the car seat belt (instead of latch), and in fact the manual says that you should use the car seat belt if your child is over 40 pounds even if you do have latch. HOWEVER, I installed this seat using the seat belt in my husband's car and it was not secure at all. I actually returned the seat and got one with click tight. I highly recommend getting a Britax 90 or another model with click tight. It is very easy to install these using the seatbelt and they are extremely secure (seat dosen't budge at all!).

This will work but be advised its a bit of a flemsy product ,so moving it around car ti to car or adjusting too much might cause it to break easily

It has the latch system and can also be used with a seat belt. I will say that for me in our cars it wasn't the easiest to get super tight.

You could probably put the lap belt part of the seat belt through the loop at the rear of the console which should restrain the console in an emergency stop.

No, my recommendation is to pick yourself up a quick release belt from say home depot for a couple of bucks and just keep it attached.

yes, you can adjust the belt, just like a car seatbelt. Attach it first then pull it tighter. It works very well.

Somewhat. You should be able to pull the straps tight and basically the seat belt will hold it tighter once child is in.

When you say seat belt, I'm assuming you're referring to the harness straps that secure the child in the seat. On the back of the carseat, you will find two black levers with straps secured through them. Hold down the two levers with one hand and then pull the harness straps on the front of the seat to loosen the belt. To tighten the belt, just pull the strap hanging from the back of the black levers. If you're looking to adjust the height of the shoulder straps, you're going to have to rethread the strap through a higher or lower slot.

You can only use seat belt or the latch system to install the car seat when using the seat with the harness. The top tether can be used in both installations but you may not use both the latch and seat belt to install the carseat in the belt path. When using as a booster you may use the latch to secure the seat to the car and use the seat belt to secure the child to the seat.

Nothing, it did not work for me , my car seats were too big for it to even fit. I guess they are for compact cars only. I suppose you could improvise with bungee cords, rope?

I wouldn't because it is a plastic breakable item that would probably come apart or off the car seat in an impact or accident that reduces the stability inside the car. The chance of your baby becoming injured if this broke or if it hit him in some way (perhaps from other objects coming loose inside the car) is not worth the risk. I used with my kids, and will use with my grandkids, safe plastic toy links with toys attached because tons of little things can be attached to those, even a binky tether. You can also easily change the toys from hard to soft and in between. Just don't make the links long enough for him to wrap them around his neck while you're busy driving.

it is a belt, but not really a safety belt, it might prevent the kid from totally falling off but would by itself not maintain him confortably in his seat

No. I am sure I could rig an automotive seat belt to the chair but there are no attach points that I can see for an aftermarket easy solution.

The car vehicle auto seat safety belt is great, but the one I purchased was of poor quality. It will work wherever you have a seat buckle. Make sure you purchase a good quality car vehicle auto seat safety belt. The safety belt hooks to our dogs harness and we feel they are much safer, and we are much safer as well, when our dogs are in the car.

It does not come with a tool to tighten. However, certain types of screwdrivers can tighten it no problem.

All i can say to your comment is ditto. Putting any kind of shoelaces or anything loose for that matter is purely dangerous. If it unravels (whic. Is more than likely going to happen) both parent and child are going down. I left mine off and am depending solely on the Velcro straps to keep my toddler from having anything to do with the rear wheel.
