    lol I understand your frustration but as DS is almost 22 kgs at 4 I had to make some tough choices in the last 6 mnths about the seats.
    I talk to my sister about car seats cause her 2 boys are 9 and 11 and they weren't even in booster seats at 3 yet we agonise about 5 point harness'. Don't get me wrong I am grateful that the standards have increased it just seems like the manufacturers haven't really caught up as ideally I would love him in the 5 point harness
    From the research I have done, the issue with the H harness is often they aren't fitted correctly they are more dangerous.

    ds1 is in an adult seatbelt. i don't like it, but feel like its the best option we have at the moment.
    Yes DS is in an adult seatbelt too. He is 110cm and 21kg at 4 years and I would much prefer had a five point harness. Funnily enough he can still fit in a compaq with 5 point quite comfortable (Seat at mums) but the instructions say not for use about 14 or 18 kg.
