I think I've looked under every rock but just wondering if I'm missing anything else I should try. I need to be able to fit two boostered kids (can ride in five-points too) and one three-year-old who can ride RF or FF (usually rides RF, but fine turning him FF for the limited times we need the three-across). Car is a 2015 Subaru Impreza [backseat is essentially the same as the Forester].
Right now I have a successful three-across with an Evenflo Amp High Back booster, a RF Combi Coccoro, and a Frontier. The Coccoro is just about outgrown RF, though (I would prefer to use it FF at this point since child is 35" and just at the 1" above head mark) but when I turned it, I couldn't fit the Amp in level enough that I was comfortable with it.
What's a good seat to try subbing out for one of these? The Frontier is pretty wide but hugs the door well so there's not much wasted space on that side--but an inch or two might make a difference. We also own a Maestro and a Marathon G3 but neither seems to be too helpful in this mix. I think I need replace the Coccoro with something equally narrow that might puzzle better with the other two, though I can also get something to use where the Frontier is. I think the Amp is already one of the narrowest HBBs so not sure there's a better option there (except maybe a second one?)
In an ideal world, I'd love to avoid buying a new convertible since we're almost done with them. I would like to eventually own a LATCHable booster, so if there's something that might be a good fit there (Defender maybe...?) that would be great.
DS1 is 5y10m, 44", 40 lbs. DS2 is 3y, 35", 30 lbs. Carpool kids in the third seat vary but all ages five and six, and most ride in highback boosters in their own cars.
Any ideas? Thanks!
