Hi
I just moved my soon to be 5 and 7 yr olds out of there Huskys and into Bodyguards but I am haveing a problem with my setabelt jamming up on my daughter in the middle of my second row of my Sequoia so I purchased 2 Parkways since I figured they would want the same seat.
They just arrived and I went to install the Parkways and I see that they only have the EPS foam in the head and not the side like the Bodyguard.Does this mean they are not as safe in a side impact collision?Do I keep the Bodyguards or use the Parkways which are a better fit in my car and easier for the kids to use and no more seat belt jamming?
Thanks in advance.

EPS foam is really something you only need in the head area, so I wouldn't sweat it. I also like the PW's because my kids actually keep their heads back, IN the wings...they always leaned forward out of the BG's, so what was the point of the SIP? lol. Anyway, we far prefer our PW's to our BG's, and I have no qualms they are just as safe if not safer.
