3 across a 2007 explorer

I currently have a FR85 for my daughter and I will have a babysit kiddo in a NBB. We will be having kiddo #2 and I was wondering if anything would fit in that center position with the other 2 outboard? My preference for the baby would be a coccoro. I tried putting 2 boosters and the FR85 and it was too tight.

I am asking because I have an oppurtunity to trade a trusted friend my FR85 for her Radian.Would that make the 3 across work? I looked the seats up and the FR85 is 19in wide, coccoro is 15 and the radian is 17. Would the extra 2 inches help? I am torn with what to do my DD and I LOVE the FR85!

So will a FR85, coccoro and NBB fit or do I need to do the radian, coccoro and NBB?

If you love the Frontier, I wouldn't trade unless you HAD to. What NBB did you try? The LiteRider is very narrow and only $12 or $14, I forget exactly. A BubbleBum would also be a good solution.

I tried 3 across with a vivo(thinking its about the width of the seat for the baby and a backless TB. Whichever one I put in the center seat with the FR85 outboard the center seat would tip to the side which had me worrying about putting a coccoro center next to the FR85.

Frontier, radian, KeyFit works

Turbo booster, radian, KeyFit works

Frontier, radian, MyRide/boulevard works

Radian in the middle and you're pretty much gold with whatever outboard seats you want/have.

I'd be tempted to trade the frontier for the radian, get your CCO for the noob, and then get a basic highback booster for the 7 yo.
