Monterey in Subaru Outback

Does anyone know whether a Monterey fits well in a 2008 Subaru Outback? It's the 2006 to 2009 generation Outback.

Kid in question is 5.5, about 45" and 45 lbs. Booster will be behind either driver or passanger; I can't remember which side he usually sits on.

If the Monterey won't fit, can anyone recommend a booster with latch that will work well? Dad wants latch and mom wants under $150. The purchase needs to take place before October.

Do your vehicle head rests stick far forward? We have that generation of Forester and ours pushed the Monterey forward leaving a large gap Diono said was unacceptable (emailed them pics). Is there somewhere you can try one to see?

I have a Monterey and a 2006 Outback. I just put in in there on the passenger side outboard and I think it's ok. There is a small gap between the headrest and the booster headrest. I tried to take some pictures but its dark and the garage light is crappy. If its not acceptable I may be selling my Monterey! I bought it for my van but I need it to work in dh's car too.
