Help with Convertible Booster choice for travel

Help!!!
We will be living in Peru for 4 months and I don't want to lug down our giant Britax Marathons if we don't have to (we will have a driver on occasion, but small cars).......

Both kids are big/old enough to move up to the convertible booster chairs (we are looking at the ones that still have 5 pt harness, but can become booster someday).......but I am having trouble choosing....

I was first drawn to the Britax Frontier (stay in 5 pt till they are 65 pounds and 52" tall)
But its pretty heavy and big........

Many reviews for the Sunshine Kids Radian were good, and its smaller overall, very portable....
but lots of people complained about how tough it was to get a good tight installation....

SO, my wishlist is this:
safety
portability
ease of installation
overall size (to fit 2 of them, and a person in b/t them)
specs for 5 pt allow use past 40 lbs

Any suggestions anyone???
I am baffled as to other good options and want to get this resolved soon.

HELP, we leave in a month, and I don't know what to get!

Smile Car seats

Check with the safety standards while choosing the safety car seats for your child. Whether you choose a Britax car seat, cosco car seats or graco car seats make sure the seat is installed properly and provide safety to your kid during the travel. the seat's harness buckle should never rest over the child's stomach when the child is sitting in the car seat.
