Calling all Durango owners...

[sunnymw]

...if you have successfully installed any kind of car seat in any direction in the CENTER of the 2nd row (on the 40/20/40 seat), PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE spam me with pictures (of the install... not of 3 across, that doesn't help much :p)


Thank you!!

I don't have pics, but I installed a True Fit FF during my tech class. I also had a SS1 with base there that fit very nicely. Who's going to try a RF True Fit there, me or you? :p

Actually....I did have the Scenera ok there with some stuff shoved in the cracks (whis was done by a CPST-I), except the Scenera covered the Driver's side outboard buckle. I'll have to try it again myself and take pics....and try it with my Titan.

I don't have pictures, but I have a ff decathlon installed right now, and it is rock the car solid. It was once installed rf, but it did require a pool noodle to get a good recline. I have also installed a regent, as well as an infant base without any problems. Are you using latch or the seatbelt? I have used both, but find the latch to be easier. Dodge does allow borrowing, so I just use the anchors from the outboard seats.

I don't have a photo, but I've got a Roundabout FF in the center seat right now. With seatbelt. It's TIGHT. That sucker won't move.

(it's an '04 Durango, by the way)

Is the DC base the same as the MA? I test installed my MA yesterday, and it covered all the other buckle stalks :( I could get the MA RF ok (no sinking), but I couldn't have anyone else sit there.

I have a 2000 Durango w/o LATCH

I used to have a Durango and I babysat for a few kids. Anyway, I had a FF Scenera in the center.

Interesting :)

I was told awhile back that Durango only allowed borrowing for 04 and later (and of course I have an 03, it would figure).

My issue RF--the Radian WOULD fit, except the feet try to go in the seat bight but there are plastic clips there instead of a crack (for the folding seats) so it makes the seat sit about 3" from the seat back... ugh!! Not to mention the buckle stalk is about 25 feet long... even twisted 800 times... *roll-eyes*

LOL, and my buckle stalk is a million miles longer. :rolleyes: The leather seat got VERY compressed by the foot of my SS1 (If I roll a small towel, it is level with the rest of the seat). Uhh..any ideas on how to uncompress it?? We took out the SS1 base in December or January, and it has had plenty of time with no seats there.
