I posted a while ago about looking for a clek for my 10 yo dd but I am still confused. She is 4'7" and about 72 lbs (thin to skinny, no bum). She is currently riding center position, second row in our Toyota Sequoia but will occasionally be in different spots (only spots with a head rest). Right now she is sitting between a rf TF and a seat that is flipped up and strapped to allow access to the third row.
Anyway, her PW won't fit in the spot, the darn TF is so wide and because the other seat is flipped it can't scooch over at all. So right now she is riding boosterless. I'm not totally confident she passes the 5 step test.
1. her feet are flat on the floor
2. her bum is right back
3. the shoulder belt is across her shoulder, but maybe a tad close to her neck
4. the lap belt seems a little high on her tummy
5. ..... no idea what this one is
Soooo, should I buy her a clek knowing they are only legal to 4'9". Is there another good booster I could get that might last longer? I like the idea of the "comfort cube" as we don't use our car very much but when we do it's often for long-ish trips and I want her comfy.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. If you feel uncomfortable posting something contraversial (like that I can use the clek past the height limit) feel free to pm me. And BTW why is there a height limit??!!
Thanks in advance,
Morgan.
