what are the headrest straps made of? my current cover (that does nothing, at this point) has an elastic loop and it is far too stretch out now.

It's a strap that can be adjusted as needed. About a one inch wide and fit tight around my head rests. I. Have a 2015 Honda accord. Hope this helps you.

Its not elastic. Its like that material that backpack straps are made off-if that helps. I am not sure what that is called.

I found the PERFECT car mounting system for this. I looked EVERYWHERE online, and finally stumbled across a canadian company called PeriPower that makes various mounting solutions. I was able to buy the PeriPower X-Shape Headrest mount new off of ebay (for around $30), and it works perfectly. Ebay was the only place I could find where it was sold - it does ship from Canada, but shipping was pretty fast. It really is a well-made product, and install is a snap!http://www.peripower.com/product_EN.aspx?cid=2&nowp;=10

William- I returned this seat but if I remember correctly, it loops "up" & secures around headrest. Try that & see if it works. We couldn't use it, our 3 lb. baby got all twisted even with the harness in use. Good luck!

The back of the seat protector has two straps that wrap around the headrest posts. There are side tabs that could be used. Does the back of the seat fold forward? you could wrap a strap around the back of the seat if it does.

i didnt have the issue with the height, but the elastic broke right away. Also, I didn't feel like the headrest was comfortable. It was too hard for me.

It's a tight squeeze if you can't move your headrest. I found that I needed to raise the head rest up for it to fit snug.

I don't know if you can get new straps. Frankly, if mine broke I would buy a different cup holder. This slides around a lot on the wheel chair arm. It's okay but I would like to try something else.

:-) Me too! It did not fit the armrest perfectly (mine was a five speed, bucket seats, dual armrest) but with one little snip I was able to get it past the joint. then I tied it down tightly. Not the most elegant solution but it works.

Don't know if it is normal. Ours cracked during a cleaning. We e-mailed Britax and asked for the hugs pads that they put on the 2nd generation. They are not as padded but made of a tougher rubber. They never e-mailed me back but they sent them free of charge right away. We had them in about a week. Make sure you provide them all of the serial/model info from the seat.

The ones that go around the headrests work really well! There is a larger strap that I haven't tried, but it comes with instructions.

there is a set of two straps that go around the headrest. Very easy to put on and take off.

With the old HUGS pads they were hard to adjust. I had to replace mine and the new ones are much easier. I'm assuming new car seats will have the new HUGS pads and if not you can always call Britax and they'll send you them for free.

mine has elastic in front and back. There is clips on each side for a strap to go under the car, that is not included. I just use one bungee hooked into the clips.

I dont feel anything on the tops of my armrests other than padding. If you look at the underside of the armrest cushion, you can see 2 screws/bolts that attach the pad to the bracket. Maybe back the screws/bolts out a bit so you dont feel them? Shorten the screws? Contact the manufacturer?

There is no way to strap it on. You will need to cut a hole and install in the headrest.

I have the same problem. The foam is now buckled under the cover. Lots of money for inferior cover.

There is no ay to secure the bottom half of this cover. It's easy enough to put the 2 bands around the headrests and keep the top up but the bottom part just hangs and my dog ends up moving it off the seat just by moving around. I wish there was a way to secure the bottom half. I even tried to push it up under the seat but that only last a little while.
