I am trying to figure out the car seat puzzle in my 2015 passat. I currently have 2 radian seats, 1 ffing (2 1/2 year old) and 1 rfing (10 month old). I am due with baby #3 in March and currently have the cybex aton, which does not fit between the 2 radian seats. If I turn both ffing it is a tight fit, but I really would like to keep my 10 month old rfing as long as possible. I tried putting the ffing seat between the rfing seats but wasn't able to get a good install and worry about being able to buckle in my oldest. Is there another/better option for the baby coming in March? Anyone not use a bucket seat for their third child (I like to wear my babies while they are young so I rarely carry the seat with me)?

Did you try the RFing seat in the middle? I've done a RFing radian in the middle of my 2013 Passat and was able to get a harnessed seat beside if. I would most definitely keep your 10 month old RFing for a while. I think with the RFing seat in the middle, you could get an infant seat on the side. Or perhaps a baseless one. If that doesn't fit, a convertible that is compact, fits infants well, and sits up high to puzzle with the radian would be ideal. Perhaps a Britax convertible with a newborn wedge.

We had 2 radians and a Combi Coccoro in our 2001 VW Jetta. If we can get that in the small Jetta, you can definitely get it in the Passat.
I just did this in a 2006 I think it was?
We ended up doing a RF Radian, FF radian & a keyfit .... All independently tight with room to spare
Did you use an angle adjuster for the rf radian? also is there a trick to getting the ff radian tight? I can't seem to get it tight enough.
