First question, what's the difference between the vivo and the vivo lite? They look pretty much the same to me. I was able to try out the monarch today, and I love the belt guide. If I choose to put it in the center of the 3rd row it will definately hold the seatbelt, but I will not be able to see anything out my rear view mirror. I could see a little with the airbooster in the middle of the 2nd row. Because of that I am more than likely going to put him outboard in the 3rd row. The monarch does not fit next to the regent at all! It's pretty wide at the top. The usa baby didn't have any recaro seats, and around here that's pretty much it for baby stores other than bru. The monarch fit great in either position of the 3rd row. I really would prefer to get a seat that I've tried, but since I have the entire row to work with I'm fairly certain the vivo would work. It is also about $90 online, and I think the monarch is $127 with the sale. There are also someparkways floating around out there. When did they stop making them? So which one would you recommend? Also, I'm off to look at the pictures scatterbunny posted of her dd in different boosters since she's almost as tall as ds!
