HBB compatible with outboard 2nd row Ody

[mommabritt]

Hello, we are new odyssey owners and still learning what works and what doesn't. The only hbb we own is a parkway sg and the seatbelt doesn't slide freely in the guide and bunched up really bad and is a concern to me. Fit is great if the belt is out of the guide but not sure that's ok... The parkway sg is currently our 8 year olds seat for trips. I planned to use it for our youngest daughter but after having to put her in it yesterday after she had an accident in her frontier85, I didn't like the belt in the guide at all! We're probably about a year from boostering her fulltime (she'll start training in dh car) so wondering what the options are. Would like a LATCHable booster only please and will be used for a small/average sized kid. She is currently 41 pounds, 42 inches tall and will be five next month.

I cannot find pictures anywhere of a hbb in the outboard seats....can you guys help a mama out? Thanks!

What year Ody? I've had luck with the Chicco Kidfit in my '14

We have used a Maxi-Cosi Rodifix there with good results. (13)

In our 02 and 05 we never had problems with any booster there. I haven't tried any others in the new one.

It's a 2013.

Is that seat pretty sturdy or does it tip?

It has rigid lower connectors so it doesn't tip at all.

Ok thank you! I'll have to check if BBB has it in store to try out when it gets closer to time

We have a 13 Odyssey and we have both our 5 and 7 year olds in Graco Affix high back boosters. They work great for us!

Ours is the same though the 2011 model year. We have a Clek backless there because a highback would require rethreading seatbelt each time kids get out of the third row. But we've had 6 seats usually.

The Clek backless for our 6 YO is rock solid because it latches in AND you can still push the seat down to let the third row out, amazing! I see you want a highback though and I see some good choices above.
The belt is kind of not so great. I can see how it would not glide well for many seats in that spot.

Thanks for the advice! Backless options are great too, and I love the affix, I want it in pink for dd later.

I did learn that he parkway does much better and the belt glides easily if I click the vehicle seat back one notch.

I would love to see pics if you have a chance! (Clek in there, or with seat pushed down) and maybe the belt fit..

If love to see a rodifix too if someone had a pic

I only found one unbuckled, goofy eyed pic in the Rodifix. It has a closed belt guide so it doesn't get caught.

She's doing ok in the SG-L back there now though.
