Exposed latch hooks?

Hi does your X3 latch loops show as much as this? First photo I attached a car seat base without the car seat for only a day (right rear seat). Second photo is better but still visible (left rear seat). Granted it\'s shot at a somewhat low angle. It\'s the same angle as when I\'m driving looking back.

Anyone else who has used the latch buckles for their baby car seats have latch loops as exposed as mine?

I don't use baby car seats so can't really comment, mine is completely invisible. I wonder if you can push the latch in? or is it stuck in that position?

Do you have that little 2 plastic dots each side (or printed dots on sensatec seats) on the bottom of the rear seatbacks? If you do, then you have them, but maybe not exposed since it's never used.
