[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our 7 year old 99th percentile son still uses a full booster in our car. He still fits in it and is handy for him to nap in when we are driving. We have a backless booster when we travel that we use because it is easier to carry and he is fine in that.

I don't see the need to move him to a backless booster when the one that he has now works just fine. Why toss it and get something else?

We'll stop using it when he outgrows the need for a booster.[/quote]

OP here.  Fit is part of our issue/motivation for considering the change.  We have captains chairs in our second row SUV and since we switched from using the 5pt harness to the seat belt we've found the width of the Britax Frontier doesn't leave room for the seat belt to be easily buckled and unbuckled.  The buckle is angled tpwards the seat base so you have to shove the seat over and wrestle to get the buckle in the attachment - all of which is very difficult with a child sitting in the seat.  This isn't an issue in our second SUV, but it in our primary daily driver.    [/quote]
