Can I put a front facing car seat in the CENTER / MIDDLE of the third row ("Magic" seat) of a new (2011 - 2014) Honda odyssey securely using any method at all (seat belts, etc)? Does anyone on this message board have personal experience with that?
My wife and I are looking to buy a new Honda Odyssey (2013 or 2014) and we have a toddler (almost 3 yr old) who uses a Graco convertible forward facing seat (I think it's the GRACO MySize 70 from Babies R Us) and we are going to have another baby in January (we will probably use a Chicco KeyFit 30 for the infant in the middle row center facing backwards).
I have read (and been told) many times that the middle / center position is always the safest spot to put a car seat (because of possible injuries due to side-impact collisions).
Because the middle positions are the safest, I'd like to put my newborn in the center of the 2nd row of the new minivan and our 3-yr old in the center of the third row ("magic" seat). The problem is, there are only 2 LATCH positions in the third / magic row of the odyssey and neither of them is in the middle.
So - anyone have any luck putting the Graco MySize 70 or any similar front facing seat in the middle of the 2011-2014 Odyssey 3rd row using seat belts / hooks / whatever?
