I'm trying to figure out which is safest. The 3rd row in our Excursion doesn't have top tethers. (Also doesn't have LATCH) I read in another thread that top tethers improved safety around 9-16% while center seating improved it by 30%.
So I'm wondering: would it be better to put my FF'er (Nautilus - still in 5-point harness) in the center with the lap belt or on the side with the shoulder belt? I'll also have RF'er in the 3rd row. Convenience says that it would be easier to have the RF'er in the center position and FF on the side. But, what about safety-wise?
