Hi,
The car: 1997 Honda CR-V, Lap/shoulder belts and top tether outboard (both sides), lap belt only in center with no center top tether.
The kids: 3yo, 30lbs, long torso (currently uses second slots on his Regent)
6yo, 46 lbs, long torso (will soon need the top slots on her Regent)
8yo, 60lbs (friend's child, uses regular adult belt in his car)
We take care of the 8yo one afternoon/week and there is no room in the back for a third child with even one Regent back there (much less two). Could anyone recommend a sequence of seats we could use that wouldn't cost too much, but keeps the younger two kids harnessed (and preferably the 8yo too, he's not that big). The 6 yo has to be harnessed as she is not mature enough for a booster. Currently, I have told his mom that I will transport him only in emergencies to the hospital in the front seat. It would be nice to be able to fit all three in the back for recreational trips, though. Could the 86y or one of the other harnesses help us? I realize both my kids will have to ride in something other than their Regents when the 8yo is with us, there just isn't room. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!!
