Hello!
I have an 04 Honda Odyssey. We have two captain's chairs in the middle row and a straight 3-across bench in the third row.
My kids:
- 4y8m tall boy harnessed in a Graco Nautilus. Seatbelt install due to weight.
- 2y8m average height girl in Graco MyRide. LATCH install.
- newborn coming in September, will be in Chicco KeyFit
I *think* my only option is to have my 4yo in the center spot in the third row. There's only one tether location in my van in that row that I'm able to spot (please let me know if there's other options!!). And if I'm understanding my manual correctly, I'll need that top tether.
Also, the seatbelt for that center 3rd row position is a weird thing. It has a lap belt, and then it has a separate shoulder belt that can attach to the lap belt. Do I need the shoulder belt with this installation?
When he outgrows the harness and goes to the high-backed booster, do I continue to use the tether?
I plan on having my younger two children in the second row. For ease of loading and unloading the three children as safely and efficiently as I can, does it matter which child is behind the driver's seat?
Also, I can move my captain's chairs to have a middle aisle or a side aisle. Any pro tips for the best way to do that?
THANK YOU!!
