Is it safe to put something in the booster seat with ds (more)

So I have him in the turbo and he has 1.5-2" on either side of him, and he often scoots to one side or the other. But for the best shoulder belt fit he needs to sit in the middle of the seat. Is it ok to put a rolled hand towel on either side of him? Anyone had a similar experience?

Thanks in advance :)

I can't tell you it's 'ok' to do something that the manufacturer doesn't allow.

If the towel doesn't go behind him, or under him and most importantly, doesn't go under the lap belt, I can't see how it would interfere with the booster doing what it needs to do, but honestly I'm not sure if you could do that.

If he's not sitting up and staying relatively still in the booster, I'd put him back in a harnessed seat, not introduce towels.

If your vehicle manual doesn't forbid it, and your seatbelts lock at the retractor, you could 'lock' him into place.
