Default Help Please. Son is 39 pounds now.

I have a Cosco Alpha Omega. My son is one pound away from not being able to use this as a 5-point harness. The seat fits pretty solid in the middle back seat of my 2003 Lexus ES-300, (which I believe is very similar to the Toyota Camry.) But, if I don't bare down on it and really lock it down with the seat belt, it wants to fall over. If I use this as his booster, as I was planning all along, I'm afraid he will tip over. I believe the seat would be more stable at one side or the other but I just don't want to do that since I have the option. I'm dead-set on seating him in the middle. I'm just looking for opinions from people who know about this. I tried to get info from Costco but it was very generic. All of my friends with children near my sons weight and age have had their children in regular boosters for months now and the seats seem SO SLOPPY sometimes. Maybe I'm just so used to nailing that thing down solid for almost 4 years?? Thank you SO much for any help. I'll buy whatever I need to go the safest rout if the Alpha Omega isn't up to par for some reason.
