How many inches of space do I need for a coccoro?

TheQueenMother · Dec 17, 2009

The third row of my suburban is 46 inches. The GN takes up 19 inches. I need to get two seats in the remaining 27 inches. How many inches of space will a rfing coccorro take up? Is there any hope? Is there another seat that is more narrow?
Thanks

It really isn't possible to give you an accurate measure of the amount of room a combination of seats is going to take up. One seat may end up fitting in under the widest part of the other, or both seats may meet at the widest points. It even differs car to car, since one seating position may be lower or higher than the other and change how the seats puzzle together. The best way to tell is to try it out.

Also, you have to take into account whether or not you can get a good install with the seats puzzled together. I can *fit* 4 sceneras in the second row of my Armada, none of them can be installed even remotely correctly, but they fit in the space available.

the coccoro is the narrowest seat on the market I believe. It takes up just under 15" side-to-side

It's all i the puzzling, as has been said. I was actually able to puzzle a giant frontier with a titan and a turbo in a VERY small space, because the titan's weird bowl-like shell overlapped the armrests on bot the TB and the frontier, which saved literally 6+ inches off the total width of the seats. I was floored.
To be honest, if there is ANY way to get the nauti out of a tight 3-across, I'd do THAT...the nauti just doesn't puzzle well with much, and is truly annoying to try and work with....what other seats do you have that you could put back there instead of the nauti?

The Radian is narrower than the coccoro at the base. It also puzzles well with the GN (at least in my car and from what I have seen) But I agree that taking the GN out of the picture (if possible) would give you a few more options.

I use the gn for dd#3 who is almost 5. She is just at the second to top slots and has a ton of room to grow. Our suburban is a 7 seater and we have 4 kids. I am pregnant and hoping that this baby sticks around. My hope is to put the three littles in the back row and the two older girls in the captain chairs. The other seats I own are two marathons, a true fit, a EFTA, and a roundabout. I plan to buy a new seat or two.

Liddie weighs 48lbs. She is a smidge under the top slots on the marathon. In the MA, her shoulders looked squished and the seat is not a good fit for her all the time. She fits great in the true fit but has less than 1/2 inch torso growth. She has torso room in the EFTA but no weight left to gain. Hmm I saw the 3across with the radians but saw that rfing was difficult. I'll justhave to buy and try it out.

I have a Nauti and a Radian XT and they fit next to eachother allright. I can fit a Radian in the middle of my Mountaineer either FFing or Rearfacing with the Nautilus behind the driver and a Uptown behing the passenger.

You really just have to try out different combos. You may be able to put the Nautilus in one of the captians chairs and possibly be able to fit two Radians and a booster in the back row. Or maybe a MA, Radian and booster in the back row.

The titan/EFTA and the nautilus are two of the hardest seats to puzzle with other seats.
