Car hire fuerteventura booster seat question

Hi all

Looking at hiring a car from CiCar in fuerteventura. I can add a car seat for our 5 year old for free. There are 2 options: <15kg a child seat and >15kg a booster seat. Our child is 21kg so clearly in the second category but the missus is worried that the booster seat would be the basic seat only type, rather than the high back booster type we have here.

Is there any way of finding out what we will get? I've looked up Spanish regulations but it doesn't seem to specify whether high back boosters are the law or not.

Thanks.

    it will more than likely be the basic seat type, that's what the taxis had when we were there in may

    Don't forget the law here has only just changed, the high book booster seats are safer, but that doesn't make the others unsafe, which are still legal here to use, just not purchase

    Personally I think a seat is fine but the missus is fussy about it.
