Best solution?
I am sending the grandparents back in their SUV so that their vehicle can accommodate my 7 and 9 YO this summer. !!!! Ug!

In the back we NEED to fit grandma, 7 YO and 9 YO.
I tried every seat I have, including Harmony youth and all are too big.

Ended up with 9 YO has to use an Incognito (it arrived today from Amazon). He is outboard behind driver.
7 YO will be in middle but there is NO headrest. (The Vivo (unsure if it needs a headrest but anyway..) worked for 7 YO but it pushed the Incognito way to the side and I, as the adult tester, had about no room to sit (and grandma is wider than I am). So no go.

Incognito works for the 7 YO too and she is short enough that no headrest needed. BUT she is not 60 lbs. In August when she needs it she'd be perhaps 56 lbs.

So, do I order her the Incognito?
Some other solution? (Dad who is 6'4" and grandpa ride up front).

Did you try the youth booster yet? Depending on how tall she is, she may still have enough head support. Ds is a shorter torso-ed 9 year old and he was able sit in a youthbooster with no additional headsupport a few months ago.

Or even try the older child in the youth booster and the Vivo again with the 7 year old? The different shape may help.

Youth booster left her with no head support at all. Too tall.

RSTV might be tricky...grandparents and dad would be clueless!


The youth booster worked well in our van tight 3 in a row with an Incognito as part of the mix, so wow, this SUV is narrow!

LOL, I was just thinking it looked wide to me, but that's only because I managed two infant seats and a Maestro in there, not nearly-full-sized-kids-and-grandma. The lack of a middle headrest has always vexed me in that vehicle...
