EDITED TO ADD PHOTO: Problems with Safety 1st Store N Go in Toyota Sienna

Help! Anyone else have problems using Safety 1st Store N Go in a Toyota Sienna? Manual says tops of ears can't go over vehicle's seatback or headrest or car seat headrest. Without using headrest, tops of his ears ARE barely over the vehicle's seatback, but WITH the headrest, the carseat isn't flush with the vehicle's seatback because the headrest sticks out too much. Do I just need to find another seat, or is there something I'm not considering? Thanks for any help! I've added a picture to show this the Store N Go with the back only set to the second lowest position, which is all my son needs for the seatbelt to work correctly. I can't believe no one else has had this issue. I read tons of reviews and everyone loved this seat. Do people just put their kids in the very back? It works with the headrests in the 3rd row, but I don't want him riding all the way in the back unless it's necessary.

if this seat won't work, I'd love to hear your recommendations for one that would.

Thank you so much!

This is a common problem in newer Siennas. The common solution is remove the head restraint but your booster is one of the few brands that doesn't allow that.

Have you tried the third row?
