Width of Boost Air Protect and Graco Turbo Booster

Which is narrower?

I am leaning towards the Boost Air Protect, but it looks to be wider to the Graco Turbo Booster. I can't get a Boost Air Protect locally.

ETA: I need it to be narrow because of the potential issue of transporting my DCP's 9 yr. old son in my DH's 01 Corolla. It will have to be next to a Evenflo Triumph 5 either outboard on in the middle. The 9 yr. old is about 5' tall and 100 lbs.

I don't know the answer to your question, but I'm bumping this up in hopes that someone does.

One trick I use with a booster in a tight three-across situation is to keep the booster buckled, and have the child wiggle under the belt- but that might be harder for an older/larger kid.

I'm wondering if a child that large might not have outgrown a high-backed booster already, except perhaps the very tallest ones. Have you considered a backless booster instead, to make sure the belt is positioned correctly, if he does not pass the 5-Step Test but is too tall for a high-backed booster (which is outgrown when the shoulders go over the top belt guide position?)
