Lets say a 5 year old child sits perfectly in a booster. The booster fits the child like a glove and has sip all around. Is it safer for the child to ride in a harnessed seat or booster or are they both just as safe?

Pretty hard to imagine how even a skinny kid could submarine out of that clamped lapbelt, though....
How much does she weigh?
You are totally avoiding my question :duck:
What I think I am understanding is that this is sort of a gray area. It would be preferable for a child of said size to ride harnessed, but it wouldn't be terribly unsafe for her to ride in said booster as long as she behaves. Which means, I've still got to decide on my own. I won't have my van back till tomorrow, so I'll go play around with car seats then.
not saying you haven't but have you checked the DOM? All the seats I've dealt with have eight year life spans although none have been britax's. In 2003 the bodygaurd was replaced by the parkway you might be near the end of or over its life...more of a better to check while its easily accessible thing.
