I got my 2 Radian XTSL's today!
Since Leah is only 30 lbs, I was hoping to keep her RFing longer. Not going to happen. She'll be RFing until the baby comes, but then she will be switched to FF (she'll be just over 3 years old). The Radian is just too big front to back to allow the drivers seat to be pushed back as far as it needs to go for DH to drive.
I installed (from driver side to passenger side):
FF Radian w/seat belt
FF Radian w/seat belt (buckle stalk twisted 2 times)
RF Chicco KeyFit 30 with base w/ seat belt
All 3 seats were solid installs by themselves, but they do touch each other.
Note: The tethers are not attached since I didn't plan to keep the seats this way. The SafeStop should be installed on Leah's seat since she would be less than 40 lbs and riding FF (but SafeStop is not used when RF). There's a hump in the middle seat which is why the center Radian appears higher than the outboard Radian. The KeyFit is installed tight and properly, it just appears that the seat belt is twisted when in reality it's not.
And just because they're cute, here's how they will ride until Baby is born. (The RF car seat is installed with LATCH. I locked the seat belts and buckled them in so Leah wouldn't play with them with her feet.)
