Question Skinny seats other than the Radian?

Background: My friend is trying to do three across in her 05 Honda Pilot (center row) and her 06 Toyota Corolla. She currently has a

05 Pilot
FF Nautilus
FF Marathon
RF Chaperone

06 Corolla
FF Radian
FF Boulevard (she hates this seat and wants to sell it)

The infant seat will not fit in the Corolla with the other two seats. Her kids are 5 years 35lbs, 3 years 30 lbs and 3 months and 12lbs.

She needs to be able to fit all three kids in the Corolla for daycare transport and would like a less tight fit of seats in the Pilot. I recommended a couple Radians but she would like something less pricy. I have not been following the newest car seats very much lately so I am asking here. What seats (if any) are skinny like the Radian but cheaper.

I tried to search but I suck at it apparently so any help or advice would be appropriated :eek::D Thanks!

Harmony Defender 360. It is a harness to booster. It is about the same width as a radian and has a higher top harness height. It is only $99 at Walmart. It has a no re-thread harness with the adjustable headrest. The crotch strap is short but you can request a longer one from Harmony and they'll send it out for free (via snail mail so it takes almost 2 weeks)

There is also the Evenflo Securekid 300/400. It is also a harness to booster seat that runs about $120.

I can't think of any narrow convertibles at the moment other than the Radian. I have heard that the Radian and the new Evenflo SureRide puzzle very well. The SureRide is a convertible to 65 lbs with tall top harness slots. Not sure if it would puzzle well with an infant seat though.
