Question Belt fit check -- Vivo

Hello, and thank you for all the knowledge you share on these boards. I have been reading for a while and have learned a ton.

My son is 5 years almost 9 months old, about 48 pounds and 47 inches. He has been riding in a booster around town for about a month. Right now he is riding in a Vivo 2nd row passenger outboard in a 2007 Honda Pilot. I am just wanting to check belt fit, especially because his shoulders are so narrow.

Also, the lap belt seems to do something weird near the buckle-side belt path. I make sure to pull it tight across his lap, but there is this weird pucker where it comes out of the belt path.

He sits nicely and even slept for a bit this weekend without falling out of position. Is this seat a viable option? Any suggestions? Thanks so much!

It looks good!

Just fyi, guessing from the clothing and everything that you're having warm weather. We've heard reports of the angle adjuster melting to seats. If you have a receiving blanket you may want to slide it under the Radian and angle adjuster to protect your seats.

Thanks for the belt fit feedback, and also for the angle adjuster info. I hadn't heard that, and will definitely put a receiving blanket in there. I'm in Wisconsin, and it has been insanely hot here!

The belt bunches like that on our Vivo also. I think it's just the way it works with the belt changing angles with the guide so far forward.

I just make sure it's not twisted and that the shoulder belt is on top of the lap portion.
