We are taking a trip to Orlando in June and there will be 7 of us in our 2007 Honda Odyssey. 3 adults and 4 kids.
My DH will be driving and I will be in the passenger seat, my mom is going with us and she has to be in the 2nd row in one of the captains chairs.

Our 12 yr old is just in a seatbelt, 8 yr old in a Monterrey, 7 yr old is in a Vivo right now but he is HORRIBLE about sitting correctly so I have a FR 85 that will be here on Wednesday so he'll be in a 5pt harness again, then we have the 2yr old still rear facing in a Radian.

I tried the Radian rf'ing in the 3rd row but then my 8yr old couldn't buckle in her booster. Will the Frontier install in the 3rd row?? Then I could put the 8yr old in a slimmer booster and have my 12 year old in the middle of the 3rd row with a seat belt?

Help!

I have an 07 Odyssey. We had a RF Radian installed in the 3rd row middle with LATCH. I think you could fit a 12yo in a seatbelt on the passenger side. The Monterey fits on the driver side, we had one there for my DD. Then the Frontier in a captains chair. It might be a little tricky for the older kids to get past the RN but my 8yo didn't mind.

Thanks, I'll try installing the Radian with LATCH. Last time I installed it with the seatbelt but the LATCH connectors are a little off center so maybe that will give my 8yr old enough room to get the belt buckled in her booster.

I also have a MyRide 65, does anyone know if that puzzles well?? It does have small base but is wider with the cupholders. I'm wondering if that would work enough for her to be able to buckle.

I'd probably try is the Radian, Vivo in the middle, and 12yr old on other side of the vivo...

then the 7yr old in the frontier in the captain's chair next to grandma.

I tried the Monterey with the MyRide in the middle, it fits but I think it would be hard to buckle. And the overhang on the MyRide doesn't leave much room on the other side.
