Hmmm..how to put this. The top anchors for the shoulder belts in the back seats of my Subaru are REALLY far forward. If I sit in the seat, the shoulder belt doesn't touch my shoulder, the anchor is too far forward. So, with a HBB, the shoulder belt is being pulled BACK to the belt guide, and then down to the buckle. It seems to work, I can't find anything in my booster manuals or car manual that even mentions this. Is it ok?
I have a Bodyguard, and the car is a 1991 Subaru Loyale wagon.
I asked this question at PP, and was told to call Britax (which I will). I've tried a variety of boosters and they ALL do this (BACK to the booster belt guide and then down to the buckle). For that matter, it does the same with a car seat. The shoulder belt goes BACK to the car seat and then through. Is this just not safe for anyone/anything? Any thoughts about one of those vests in this case? What about a Kid-Y?
