Product Description
4045 Keep your baby snug in his or her car seat with the Seat Belt Locking Clip! This locking clip, which is compatible with any car seat that includes an integrated harness system, minimizes the movement of the plate part of the seat belt which clicks into the buckle. On some seat belts, these latch plates slide freely on the belt strap, so it is necessary to use a locking clip to give your child a snug fit in their car seat. All Graco child car seats with integrated harness systems come with a latch plate, but it is a good idea to buy an extra one or two for your other automobiles! Features: -Includes one locking clip -Minimizes movement of the plate part of the seat belt -Helps give your child a more snug fit in car seat -Keep a spare or use in additional cars -Use with any child car seat that includes an integrated harness system ***Please note that these products cannot be shipped to Puerto Rico. We apologize for the inconvenience - feel free to call us regarding alternatives!

5 out of 5 stars YOU MUST HAVE THIS if you own an older car and have a seat-belt mounted car seat base!   September 11, 2008

This works with all standard car seat belts, and all brands of child car seats. YOU MUST HAVE THIS if you own an older car and have a lap/shoulder belt-mounted child car seat or car seat base! YOU DO NOT NEED THIS if you use the LATCH mounting system. In most older cars, with a combination lap/shoulder belt, regardless of what kind of retractor or locking mechanism the vehicle has, if you don't use a locking clip (or if you have one and attach it to the wrong part of the belt, as I did until someone explained it) and you have an accident--or even just brake hard or turn to try to avoid an accident--your car seat or car seat base will likely pull the slack out of the lap portion of the belt and will get additional slack from the belt that goes up to the shoulder mount. What this looks like is the seat tilts away from the side where the shoulder belt anchor is, and toward the front of the vehicle, producing a twisting motion which is dangerous to the child's back and neck. What you want is (assuming your car seat or base is already strapped in securely first) to lock the shoulder belt to the seat belt BETWEEN THE TWO LAP ANCHORS, rendering the shoulder part of the belt irrelevant, which also keeps that dangerous slack away from the lap belt. This is the best and simplest design for this clip...just a flat piece of metal cut in a shape that allows the middle of two flat webbing straps (seat belts, in this case) to be slid in from one side, with both belts getting tucked under the "ears" that stick out at both ends, and the middle bar staying on the other side of the belts. Most car seats are supplied with one of these (look underneath or on the back of the seat for the place where one would be stored when not in use). IF YOU DID NOT GET ONE OF THESE WITH YOUR CAR SEAT OR CAR SEAT BASE, THIS COULD BE THE BEST PURCHASE YOU EVER MADE.

This works really good on keeping the seatbelt together and not moving or sliding when used with the car seat.

Great locking clip that will secure any car seat because it locks the seat belt itself. It is not specific to any car seat model so it will work with any of them.


5 out of 5 stars Replacement for lost Clip   April 10, 2009

I'd had purchased a used car seat from a friend. It was missing the clip to get a better lock on the car seat. This was a perfect replacement.

It's a great product especially for anyone who has a car that is pre 2002 (prior to latch systems).
