Need a new seat pad and straps!!

Hi Beth - First open the footmuff, and set the carseat down on the floor in front of you so you're facing it. Take the harness pads and ****** pad off the harness straps and place the footmuff into the carseat. Pull the harness straps through the holes in the footmuff and press the back of the footmuff into the curve of the carseat. Replace the harness pads. You're ready to go! When you use the carseat, simply put baby in and do up the harness as usual, then do up the footmuff for cosy, safe travelling.

Hi
Undo the popper on the shoulder harness pad. Slide the pad down the length of the shoulder harness strap.
Unhook the metal D ring.
Feed the short length, low down anchor point back in behind the seat fabric. Bring the longer length, higher up anchor point out at the desired height.
Re-attach the D ring. Adjust the harness straps accordingly.
Slide harness pad back up shoulder harness and re-attach popper.

Press and hold down the harness release button. With your other hand below the chest pads, pull the shoulder straps forward as far as possible. With the Eclipse Si fully reclined, open the seat-belt guard at the back of the shell. Pull the yoke out from behind the seat and unhook both shoulder straps. Pull the cover from the top of the seat so that you can see the slots in the seat shell. Pull each shoulder strap and chest pad strap forward and towards the centre of the shell, easing the metal tab and straps through the slot. Then thread them through to the front of the cover. Unfasten the buckle and remove the comfort pad. Gently pull the cover off the seat, easing the shoulder straps, chest pads, harness buckle and adjuster strap through the slots in the cover.

Hello,

This is the solution you desire:
1.If you look closely between the seats, there is a small loop strap made of material similar to the seat belts.
2.Pulling it releases the latch that holds the seat down. It is possible to close the seat down onto the strap, thus hiding it and leaving no apparent way to get the seat up.
You will need to grope around and find it. It may help to use a tool like some sort of hook. It is in the center of the rear edge of the seat, but it may have been folded off to either side.

Have a nice day and thank you for using fixya.

The link isn't my solution but sounds right. Good luck! My strap is STUCK on the dubled part!

Hi if you bought buggy in 2007 contact dorel with proof of purchase they will send you new extensions & an xl seat cover. They also can supply the harness pads but you can pick them up cheaper on ebay.

Instep does have replacement parts for some of their strollers. For $25 I was able to purchase a new seating pad.

hi,
i just had the same problem but there seems nothing out there at all, so i had to try myself and just succeeded there.

so a little step by step guide, i hope its clear enough.

1. i found taking the whole thing apart to be the easiest way. so take it apart, you should have two long straps, two metal buckles, and two plastics things you will need at the end.

2. hang the strap with the shoulder pads around your neck, the way it would lie if around your child.

3. note two whole, one on either side of the seat, inside, near where your childs bum would be. imagine the other strap, the long one coming from there(imagine we are starting form the right here), then it goes through the right buckle.

4. next it goes through the right shoulder pad

5. now in real life it would go thorugh the back of the seat, but its easier to leave this last, in case you pull it through lopsided somewhere, so you can fix it, anyhow....

6. the long strap now goes around your neck and through the other , the left, shoulder pad,

7, then it goes through the left hand buckle

8. lastly, it WOULD go through the hole on the inside left of the seat.

before you do that thought, close the buckle and see if everything is straight

9. now pick one end of your work and pull it through one of the holes in the back of the seat, once its thorugh one hole it should go through a thinner grey strap at the back, this is for tightening the whole thing at the fornt once your child sits in the seat, once thats done pull it back out front through the other hole.

10. lastly, pull the long ends of the straps through the two inside holes either side of the seat, they should come out at the bottom, the two plastic green things are then attached to the ends. there is a right and a wrong way here, one way you can pull them in tight, the other you cant

i hope this works for you and i hope i made sense....

You need to remove the straps from the bottom of the seat.
