I need help! My 45 lb 43in little girl has almost outgrown her car seat. DD is a solid kid, not skinny or fat but very solid and big for her age. She's 4 years and 2 months old. We RF until she was 3.5 and it is already time for a booster!
I need suggestions for a highback booster that will fit in my 2001 Huyndai Accent. I'd like her to be in a 5 point as long as possible but I absolutely can't afford more than $100 because I need one for each of our cars. DH car is new & roomy...my car is the problem. LOL The middle seat in back is lap belt only and does not have the LATCH system. So I assume I need to use the top tether if I want to put her in the middle with a 5 point. DH and I are big people so there isnt a ton of room in the back. DH is rarely in my car though. If we use a high back with a seatbelt she'll have to be behind a seat, correct?
I was looking at the Baby Trend 3 in 1 Booster for $90 and the Evenflo Chase LX for $60 but I don't know if there are others that might work. The Maestro looks good but I've read that it works best for petite kids, which DD absolutely is not. I want to use something that looks more like a booster and not a "car seat" if that makes sense so I am not interested in something like the Nautalis. Too expensive anyway. I don't want to sacrifice safety but cost is a very big concern to us.
Thoughts, comments, and/or suggestions are appreciated. Thank you so much!

If you let us know which seat your daughter is outgrowing, that will give us an idea of how tall her shoulders are, so that might help with recommendations.
