  "question": "Which booster car seats can be installed using only the vehicle seat belt, without LATCH lower anchors?",
  "answer": "Diono Solana 2 (no LATCH) XL Backless Booster: This version has no LATCH: it is held by the vehicle seat belt only, so it lifts out easily for storage in the trunk. Maxi-Cosi Tanza (BC197): The store says it can be secured with the vehicle seat belt when LATCH is not used. Clek Oobr: A vehicle without lower anchors can use the booster without its LATCH connectors, but the unused booster must be secured by the vehicle belt. Cybex Solution B2-fix + Lux: The booster can be installed without lower anchors, but only in a permitted seating position with a lap-and-shoulder belt. Britax UpNGo Click: The rigid LATCH connectors are optional for installation and help prevent the empty seat from becoming a projectile.",
