Re: man i just tried...
its a pain in the tush.
Does your car have the LATCH system?
Your local fire department can help you install it, BRU will help you too!

Re: man i just tried...
I got my sis to show me. Between me and her shopping lately with my niece, I have become a pro of getting her in/out of the base into the snugride, etc.

Re: man i just tried...
You do not need the seatbelt if your car has the LATCH.
There will be 2 "hooks" in between the cushions of the seat and the back of the seat in the car.
You attach the hooks from the carseat to those, and then tighten them as tight as they will go.
The front of the carseat base (the part thats closest to the front seat of the car) is not going to be tight. It will still lift up, but the botton part will not move.
Good luck!

ok et me go try this!! wait the latches on the car seat are in the part that faces the front of the car if i turn it around then the baby would face foward, which i know is wrong, it is a graco so i wonder if they come back further..... let me see what i can do!!

Re: man i just tried...
Good luck with it! 
The car seat is one of my more trivial parenting fears, but a fear regardless. I am TERRIBLE at putting things together, following instructions, etc...
