If this works... this is the first time I've used flickr.
Not great pics, taken w/ my cell phone, camera died on me not too long ago, should be getting a new one in the next day or two, when I do I'll try to get better pictures, maybe some comparison to the Nautilus in booster mode.
Images 62 - 65 are where I think the booster should be. But seems to be above the "green zone" in the picture on the booster (ie too high up); the next notch down is shown in the other 3 photos (66 - 68), it's too low and pushing on his shoulders.
Also -- seems to be too narrow to me, for my DS, he doesn't want to sit all the way back (we didn't drive, just sat in it in the garage, I still have to read the manual, figure out LATCH for it, etc....and intended for this to be a backup seat for awhile). You can kinda see in pic 64... he's sitting crooked 'cause he doesn't fit all the way back. Or seems to be, again, in just a few quick moments in the seat. And since the whole back raises w/ the headrest, it's not going to get wider as he gets taller & bigger.
I love the lab-belt fit, and the headrest, even not reclined I think it'll be great for sleeping. But might end up returning it anyway just because it's narrow, and that will probably only get worse as DS gets older. He's pretty close to the top setting too, in the pictures w/ the headrest up higher, it's at the 3rd click from the top (so 2 higher settings). For only barely 4, I would have thought it would have more room -- anyone know how this compares to the Monterey height-wise?
DS is 4 yrs 3 mos (4 mos on the 30th); 42" and 43 lbs.
Broad-shouldered and long torsoed for his age (although the torso thing has evened out more, he's in 4R pants and XS boys or 5t tops now). Not sure on measurements and can't find the tape measure ATM to measure him....torso height about halfway between the top two harness slots on the Nautilus though, about an inch above the top slot of the Radian.
