Scuby Dooby

My son has a Ranger Jr. that he likes, it works well and is in nearly new condition after 2 years of use. It still fits his waist well but the problem is that he has grown about 8 inches in the last year and the shoulder straps, at their limit, still make the BC ride a lot higher than it was intended.
With the Zeagle system I can see 2 options to make a DIY repair
1. Lengthen the straps on the front by sewing in soft straps - i've found a soft scubapro weight belt that seems like it will work well.
2. Lengthen the straps that hold in the shoulder harness in the back, again with the scubapro belt.
Unfortunately, the BC is in the Philippines and I am in Hong Kong, we keep our gear there and go down every month or 2. My son is really skinny so the BC still fits well everywhere, except for length.
So, anyone have any comments on my idea or advice on what i might want to do otherwise? I'm especially hoping to hear from Scott, the Zeagle man on the board
