We thought we saw the end of car napping once our little guy graduated to his booster seat. He just doesn't seem to fall asleep as easily or comfortably without the 5-point seat belt holding him up. Not to mention that seeing what that seat belt does to his little neck when he does doze off, is enough to make me cringe all over.
Here are but a few ways to make that seat belt cozy enough to nap on.

Wow, that new britax looks great. I think I might get that for my daughter when our baby boy on the way is ready to move up to her current convertible seat. My DD is very tall for her age (23 mos) and has a fairly long torso to boot, so she's already in the top shoulder harness slot in her convertible.
Forget the kids - I want that first one for myself!
We have our 6 year old in a Group II/III car seat; booster seats offer no side-impact protection. It's really comfy too.

The Graco Nautilus also has 5 point harness with very high weightand height limits for the age range.
Veering slightly off topic - we have the britax frontier (2 actually!) and love it. Our daughter is 4, very tall (43") with a long torso also and it fits her great. We have one of the first versions - got it when her brother was born two years ago. She just squeaked into the minimums then (height was fine, weight was just at the minimum) and I think it might only go to 65 pounds. But at the rate she's going, she outgrow the height restriction first! We highly recommend it.
Anyway, she's using the 5-point harness and naps well in it.
Hahaha. I still use a 5-point harness for my very large 4-year old, but I'm just laughing because I KNEW this would turn into a carseat safety discussion :). That's actually the only reason I clicked--I had to see if I was right. I do think that thing looks comfy though.
These seem like a good idea, but I can remember as a child getting frustrated because just as I was falling asleep, the weight of my head would pull the seatbelt down and I'd jerk awake. I don't think these'd bypass this problem.
Our kids are still in car-seats. We got them all car-seats for up to 26kg, and I'm so glad. It just seems so much safer. So we have never needed pillows because they have the head support to lie against. Plus I worry about the safety problems created when adding covers, pillows etc to seat belts and car seats.
Am I the only perv here that sees a bottom on the last picture? These are a great idea, in any event! I remember mastering how to prop my face on the seatbelt, and I never found it uncomfortable. Sort of like a face hammock.
@ radioriot,
LOL! no, you aren't the only one. It's not so bad down here in the gutter, is it?
I would love a made-to-measure neck supporting pillow for car sleeping. What a dream that would be.
