I just want to thank Judi and her Judi's DH for this thread:

http://www.car-seat.org/showthread.php?t=108073&highlight=radian+center+install+CRV

I had someone come in with an Advocate that she wanted in the center of her 2010 Honda CRV. She had been to another local tech and that tech had decided that the seat was not compatible with the vehicle due to the plastic hinge thingies on either side of the center seating position. She wanted to try a Radian XTSL because she had found some people have gotten it to work there.

If it wasn't for this post I would have called it incompatible as well. I am bruised, battered and sore today, but its in there. I took Dad and I to muscle it in there, and I actually stood behind the seat (because I am short like that) to put pressure on it after we let the few clicks of slack back into the retractor.

So THANK YOU!

Awww ,thanks! But really, Gabe and I did it the HARD way! Brightredmtn actually ended up doing in by straddling the hinge. How did you do it?

ETA: sounds like you did it the hard way, like we did.

Well crap. I didn't straddle the hinge! I will remember that for next time though.

Seriously, since I found that post I knew that it was able to be done so I was determined to get that sucker in there.

lol, ok. With all the latch issues, I wouldn't blame you for just choosing not to use latch. :whistle:
