Why is there a gap behind the BRITAX Next Generation convertibles when installed in a vehicle?
A. With the addition of the integrated steel bars in the BRITAX Next generation convertibles, the plastic columns at the back of the traditional BRITAX convertibles are no longer required, which creates a small gap between the car seat and vehicle seat back when installed. We have added a second forward-facing recline position to allow the car seat to install closer to the seat back for those sensitive to this concern.
