So, I’m just moving my kid from a harness seat to a booster seat and I bought three Britax booster seats, with backs, for our vehicles. I put one in the back passenger side of my 2021 crew cab custom and it’s a pain in the butt to pull the seatbelt through the belt positioning device doohickey, under the armrest, and buckle it. It’s hard for me, so my daughter will struggle with it. Yes, it’s all adjusted properly. It doesn’t help that the buckles in the rear are damn near flush with the seats. Anyway, I’m sure this is probably a booster / truck compatibility thing, and there are other boosters that may work better. 
 

Anyone using a booster seat, with a back for the belt positioning, that works well in these crew cab trucks?  Looking for recommendations. 
 

thanks all

I have a 5 and 7 year old that use these in my double cab Graco Tranzitions 3 in 1 Harness Booster Seat, Proof https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07C2RNRCJ/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_6M47YQF9A72XDSVH7XH7

 

They don't use the seatbelt it's still a harness. Not sure if you're entirely trying to go away from a harness style buckle. 

 

In case you don't want to buy new seats they do make seatbelt extenders that are cheap and might help.

My daughter moved out of her Graco booster six months ago. I only used the standard seat belt with it. I keep one in case I have to move a child to school on "school bus day." I would suggest to all keeping rear doors child-locked. My son once thought it was funny to open it up driving on the 15 to Vegas. Neither my wife nor myself were too happy. Also, control the windows.

The backs serve very little purpose. I put mine in the middle. No back and my son can buckle himself just fine. The middle is safer.
