I will have a friend's daughter 2-3 days per week over the summer. When I agreed, it hadn't occured to me that I'd have a car seat issue
2007 Dodge Charger-back seat is contoured so bump in the middle and raised edges on the outboard seats.
Braedon: 7.5yo (8 in Sept); 55lbs, 49"; currently riding in Frontier80 booster but new to this
M (friends daughter): 8yo but not sure on weight and height but they are very similar size..her torso is slightly taller; currently riding in turbo
Cohen: 2.5yo (3 in Oct); 32lbs, 38"; RF CA
Best situations I could come up with:
1: Put Cohen in the middle RF and buy 2 Harmony boosters (only ones narrow enough to fit next to the CA) for the bigger kids in the outboard positions.
**Problems I have with this are no SIP for the big kids. I have crazy anxiety over them being in a booster without a back especially since Braedon is so new to being in a booster and I can't get over the what if we are hit on the side.
2: Cohen in the middle FF which will make enough room for the Turbo's to fit with backs.
**Problems with this are the obvious FF 2yo
Only other thing I could come up with would be putting one of them in the front seat :thumbsdown: with air bags that won't turn off.
So I ask...what would you do if this were you? I'm still trying to figure out which one gives me less anxiety. I'm supposed to be picking her up tomorrow.
