We have a rental car for a few days while our car is being repaired, so I just spent a while trying to get three across in a Jeep Wrangler (possible but not fun).
Anyway, I started in the middle, and I noticed right away that the middle seatbelt was messed up. I thought it was just a flipped latchplate, so I spent about 10 minutes flipping it and flipping it and making my brain hurt, trying to figure out why it was still WRONG!!!
Then I finally noticed that the belt itself was twisted. WTF?
I followed it all the way to the bottom and felt around, and I noticed that the adjoining buckle had a really strange strap holding it...until I realized the strange strap was the middle seatbelt.
Someone had made kind-of a slipknot with the middle belt to anchor the outboard buckle.
This is after I had loosened it a bit:
It took me a couple minutes to free it, but I finally got it back to normal:
PITA.
