My test drive went like this:
Fortunately, my car is not our primary people mover and my almost 2 year old is MASSIVE and will likely be forced to go forward facing around 3.

Does anyone know how to get one of these stateside? I know they are designed for Europe but if it's good enough to keep their kids safe...

The Diono RXT is the best! Narrow profile, built like a BMW, although forward facing only. Rear facings it can be HUGE and not fit well, even in the middle. What kind of Diono do you have there in the middle? ^^

has anyone found a backless booster seat that isn't too wide/requires some extra effort to buckle the seat belt?

I've got one of these right now.. My son (almost 6) outgrew the back portion recently, so now I am just using the lower booster. Its a good looking seat with better quality fabric.. appropriate for ///M |

I bought one a few weeks ago, and my 6 year old can now buckle up himself. Before that, it was always a yoga exercise filled with silent expletives.

I can imagine. I had a 3 sedan for almost a month when my i3 had a major issue; I just got into the habit of snapping him in myself when we got into the car from the back rather than trying to do it from the front.

May be a shit company but is only a booster, how much safety could be built into a booster. Seems to be built the same as the other super brands

I checked Diono's instruction booklet and there isn't anything in there restricting use of seat belt extenders. |

I got the black one, have had it in an F30 and F80 and fits great and is relatively stealthy (even against the SO interior). I have no problems attaching the latch strap in the F80 as some have mentioned having. http://clekinc.com/oobr/ https://www.amazon.com/Clek-Oobr-Ful...ords=clek+oobr Last edited by Kankles; 02-22-2017 at 02:41 AM.. |

+1 for the Clek Oobr booster. Fits great in the F80, attaches with latch. It has an adjustable headrest with deep side wings, belt guides that easily position the seatbelt correctly and converts to a backless booster when they outgrow it. Our 5 year old loves it.

Note on seat belt extenders. You need to check with the Car Seat manufacturer and the vehicle manufacturer, before adding extenders. Many car seats say NOT OK to use seat belt extenders.
While I know you all want to protect your car/seats/leather and make it easier, I think the safety of your children come over what works best for your vehicle. |
