Civic Sedan/Keyfit 30?

Hello! We are buying a second car and will probably get a 2008-2010 Civic Sedan. Our son rides in a Keyfit 30. Will I be able to install it in the center position or is there a hump there that makes it not fit well? I assume I need to install with the seatbelt instead of LATCH. Also, I'm 5' 7" so if it goes in the center, will I still be able to find a comfortable position as the driver? TIA!

Right, no LATCH in the center.

The Chicco installs very well in most cars. I've put in the center of a 2002 Civic, which I think is smaller. You shouldn't have trouble fitting to drive. When a seat goes in the center most of the time parents still have their original driving and riding positions.

Great, thanks! I did have to move the passenger seat up one notch in our CRV but I had it back all the way since I was pregnant. I was just worried I'd have to move the driver's seat way up in the Civic. Thanks again!

It will fit beautifully in the newer Civic. I have a 2006 Civic (same body/interior as 06-11), and it fits well in my car. :)
