Hey guys. We are having an issue finding a booster seat (with a back) that fits in the backseat of our Civic Sport Hatch. It seems like they will all be too tall and hit the fixed headrests. We have a Britax Skyline for our truck, and it hits the headrest, leaving a gap between the booster back and the rear seat. We called Britax about it, and they said it was a no-go.

For those of you with the Hatch and kids in the booster seat range, what are you guys using?

I've been using the diono radian seats with great success.
I’m trying to avoid buying a complete convertible seat when I only need a booster with a back.

But the back of the Radian touches the seat back (no gap)?

Has anyone on here used the Diono Everett?

Yes the seat fits onto the rear bench and back very well. I have one kid using it as a car seat and the other is using as a booster and it works well for both of them.

Do you know which model of Radian you are using currently for the booster?

You could remove the headrest that’s what I did in my 8th gen coupe.
