Child Booster Seats for G20 LCI

Does anyone use a booster seat for their child in the rear of the car. The one I currently have works but its a little wide and so make clipping the buckle in a real pain. Anyone have any recommendations for seats they use that arent as wide or are a better shape etc. Should say she is 6 years old and its currently just the booster base that she sits on.

Thanks in advance.

I have had great luck with the peg perego viaggio shuttle plus 120. It has a narrow enough base that the kids can buckle themselves (and no belt extenders). I have one that has the back on it still, and one that is just the seat (no base) for the older kid. They also latch in so don’t fly around the car when I’m driving without them. I had tried and returned many other seats as most cover up the buckle too much and I wanted the seat to latch in so it stays in place when not in use. Expensive, but I highly recommend.

Sorry, I misunderstood! My youngest child is in one of these:

She is able to do her own seatbelt.

One thing to watch is marking the isofix latch covers. Mine are scuffed by the kids seat which annoys me.

I have two of these in the back seats

Seat belt is accessible and it's fairly compact design and gives enough support and adjustments
