This is exactly why I watched this video. I was cleaning today and wondered where they hooked onto. What are they for? Must be for a different stage of the 4-in-1
If you look under the seat pad there’s longer elastic, you pull them backwards to the back of the car seat and there’s plastic hooks above the “store your instruction manual here” sticker
It is VERY difficult to install these!!! The hooks are located THOUGH the seat. You will see small sliver-cracks in the corner where the pad lays. After you pull the tiny straps through the tiny cracks look at the big sticker that says “6 Recline Positions” you will see the hooks by the bottom corners closest to the back of the seat. I used a small thin wire and a toothpick to help me get them through the crack and on there. It’s very tight! It helps I’d you keep the 2 buttons unfastened while you do the hooks. GOOD LUCK!
So just in case anyone wants to know. Those four hoops on the bottom of the seating pad are just pure stupidity. Don't worry about them. Just button the damn thing and call it a day.
Took me half an hour to figure out. I'm fairly certain It goes on the headrest under the pad. The bottom white plastic tab goes under the Styrofoam and the loops go under the headrest position tab and loops on the back at the same spot the head rest cover loops top. It's the perfect size for it and zero instruction videos show where it goes otherwise..
You are, you have to take the seat down to the booster configuration. Then there are two rods that hold the belts in to the frame. Slip them and the belts will come free on that end, the Y attachment is the other end and you can just free it from the connector and the belts will come completely out.
For all who are fighting with the loops, a small piece of copper wire ($2/ft) from any home center fashioned into a hook tool, will save you time and many grey hairs.
So...trying to make sure my sons seat is safe after cleaning and having a hard time putting it back on and researching a video to help me do this isn’t considered “figuring it out” 🤔
