2008 Pathfinder - Britax Marathon Classic

I have a Britax Marathon Classic for my 1yr old DD, and currently I have it installed in the center back seat. The top of the seat sticks between the two front seats by about an inch or two. I'm wondering if this is OK, and if it would still be OK to install the VersaTether. It appears that the Versa Tether will just attach in a directly vertical up-down configuration (not down and forward). I am waiting to receive a call back from our local ChildSeat safety officer, but want to feel comfortable with my DD in the seat currently.
Thanks in advance!

You can tether it down, that's fine. You also don't need it installed at a 45 degree angle (the line on the side parallel to the ground). That's for a baby without head control. So if it sits up more she may be more comfortable and the tether wouldn't be so straight up and down.

You can also leave it untethered. It's perfectly safe that way.
