Which is more narrow, a TB or PW?

I need to know which is narrowest, all the way around. Need to fit a tight 3-across and I hate the FPSV booster, so that one's out. I thought that the TB and PW were in the running for next-narrowest. TIA!

I think the PW is narrower than the TB. I've never seen a PW IRL but I've seen a TB and the arm rests make it wider than the PW that has no arm rests.

PW, because of the (lack of) armrests, yeah. It might make something of a difference depending on what seat it's next to, but overall, PW.

okay, thanks. i wish i could find one decently priced that isn't a collegiate cover, but that's the rub i guess.

Yeah, Britax is really letting us down, here (grumble grumble... stamp foot to protest the disappearance of narrow highbacks from the market).

:thumbsdown:

(post in swap to see if someone happens to want a particular collegiate cover, maybe you can switch for a normal one?)

FYI: I have three across in DH's pickup like this: TB, FF RN, PW. The PW side is by far way easier to buckle. Don't know if it's actually narrower (I haven't measured), but the lack of armrests make it fit way better 3 across. I am always regretting not getting 2 PW's instead. Plus, the cover and padding and headwings on the PW is so much nicer.:twocents:
