Ok call me crazy for even considering getting a Frontier for my 8yo.:whistle: She is 49.5" tall, 55 lbs and has a seated shoulder height of 17.5". Would this seat even fit her harnessed? $280 would be alot to spend on it to use as a booster. Also, I need something to fit next to a RF RA50 and MA. I keep putting off getting seats for my older two because I can't make up my mind.:rolleyes: My car (06 Accord) has side curtain airbags so I assume that a backless seat is fine for in there. But DH has a 98 Explorer so no side protection. There is more room in his backseat than in mine. I'm thinking she needs a high back seat for the Explorer. Also, wondering if DS1 would benefit from a high back seat in there as well? He is 70 lbs and 55.5" tall. Any input/advice would be greatly appreciated. I have been dragging my feet for too long on this...
