Does anyone know about installing a rear facing convertible child seat using the latch system?

I am installing these 2 identical seats rear facing in my car. I am concerned because as tight as I can install them according to the manual and videos I have watched online. But it still flips like its on a hinge towards the back of the car's seat. This does not seem ok at all. Can someone help me?

    Check with a car seat tech. In an accident, the back of the rear face seat will tip toward the car's seat back. That helps distribute the force of the accident so your child is safer (remember to read face to age two or three).

    You can also call the company for best advice based on what seat you own.

    Find a car seat tech near you to look at the installation and make sure that it is done properly. You can really only install a seat well by reading both the car seat manual and your own car's owner's manual to make sure you understand everything. Lots of people have a hard time getting a correct installation. The car seat tech will be familiar with different seats and models and will help you make sure that it is safe. https://ssl06.cyzap.net/dzapps/dbzap.bin/apps/asse...
