Question Which convertible for Prius V?

I need a convertible in the center of a Prius V. Britax 70 convertibles don't work there. Because the center seat is slightly raised, the base hangs above the outboard seat. Britax says no to this install. I might try a Classic Marathon tomorrow. We're hoping to still fit adults outboard.

I have a radian RF center in a regular 2011 prius with an angle adjuster. There is some movement in the back of the seat, but less than 1 inch at the belt path. Install wasn't fun, but was possible.

Love the safety of the seat and easy of loading the child into it. Hope that helps. Did not try a complete air for comparison..

Oh bummer, I didn't know they did that... and I just googled pics of the backseat... yikes. So no, I haven't :( Can you take the car and try out seats? I think those 2 are your best bet width-wise for getting 2 adults back there as well as installing on a hump, but I don't know how they'll work with those buckle stalks and the bight.

It's not my car. If all else fails she would probably let me take it to BRU. But I was hoping for a sure fire seat ;) I'm going to try my Classic Marathon. If that doesn't work she may get a foonf
