Matching children booster seats! HAAA! They match the interior, (grey) very well. Believe me, I've been in car-seat he** for the past few weeks looking for a good match in every ToysRus, Wal-Mart, K-Mart, and Meijer in all West Michigan, and these are the best match, (IMO) with my MM interior.
What do you guys think?? LOL. (I know, my mind is gone... been in too many Wal-Marts of late). :shake:

When mines were that young, i had mustangs and have to bend over from the front to "throw" them into place. You're a lucky father to have them with such a big fourdoors. You're setup look great but don't think too much about the looks. In no time they'll be big enough to sit on the original seat, saying "gee dad faster ..faster , floor it pleeeeaaaassse!!"

Thanks Dan! You know... it's weird... now that I think about it your suggestion, they MAY INDEED look cool with Gods Head emblems sewed onto the backs! LOL! I'll be thinking about that tonight while I'm trying to get to sleep!

Thanks for the input snowbird, (and everyone). I was just being silly with this post, (as I crave to do more often than what's wise) but I appreciate the nice compliments! Yeah, they are growing up fast, and I know they'll be wanting driving lessons before I know it, but in the meantime I did want the carseats to be, (at the least) unobtrusive! I did search long and hard in many places for these and I'm glad you guys approve! LOL! Made my day! :banana:

Dayum...how did you take that pic!!?
I couldn't get far enough back for a good pic so I attached a thumbnail as well.
You realize when you dip into the 13's you need to upgrade...:P
Summit racing had these on closeout last year. $125 I believe. The cloth in the thumbnail is not the cloth I have however. The color match is nice. And 5-point restraints...ewwww.:cool:

Barry! That cracked me up! I haven't laughed out loud like that for... well, at least a week that I can remember! Thanks for that!
That's a FINE looking 5-point chair, by the way! I'll be contacting Summit after my visit to Alternative Auto this Saturday!! Wheeeee!!!

Dave,
Where did you get the seats at? We have one on the way and will need a nice kid's seat. The wife's Durango has a grey interior and so will a Marauder - once I pick one up.

Eric,
I picked mine up, finally, at a Meijer in Muskegon, MI, (60 mi. from my home) because although a major name brand, everywhere I looked they had only one, or only the display, or were sold out... ect...
Anyway, the good news is that they are carried by all the major department stores. I know where you are, but am uncertain if there are Meijer stores there... (?). If so, I would try there first. If not, then try the other majors.
The information you need is:
Evenflo: Big Kid Booster Seat. (Really, that's all the manual calls it...). It is dark grey with blue trim and a small area with orange trim, (which disturbed me, but hey, after looking for weeks I decided was not too bad a clash).
Let me know if you need more pics to identify with the display. I think you'll have better luck with only needing one, (but hopefully 2 soon)! :)

Well, we have a 7 year old already that is no longer using one, but will need one for the new one on the way.
Speaking of which, the wife had an unscheduled ultrasound yesterday because the doctor was a little concerned/confused after a checkup last week. They wanted to verify how far along and what is going on. They only saw one kid in there, heard the heartbeat, and is about 11 1/2 weeks along (about a week further than we thought :confused: ). So, will only need 1 new car seat by June. :)
And everything is looking good and normal - at this point. Will go back around 20 weeks for the "normal" ultrasound and hopefully find out the gender at that time.

Seats look great!
Head over to your (wifes) favorite home type store (bed,bath beyond,etc...)
and pick up a couple of "bath sheets",to put under the seats they'll cut down on the lost Cheerios and general "kid droppings".

Great to hear that everything's normal! Wow, 8 1/2 weeks to go to find out the gender.... :( .....long wait. I think finding out with the ultrasound is the smart choice. Parents who want to "wait and see" what gender make my stomach clench up like that time I drank too much tequila. "Oh, we'll just buy 2 of everything.... la la la....". :loco: What are they talking about?? Makes no sense!
Oh, wait... I'm derailing my own post here... :Offtopic:
