Question RF MA next to evenflo booster/ff radian inHighlander

Here is my 3 across scenario I need help with:

I need 3 across in my 2012 Highlander. This is what we have now:

1) 6 yo 40lbs, 48" - Evenflo Booster - middle
2) 3.5 yo 35lbs, 38" - Marathon 65 FF. - behind driver
3) 13 month old graduating from bucket (baby trend flex loc). - behind passenger

I also have a Marathon 70 and a Graco high back turbo booster.

How should I arrange them when I move the baby out of the bucket? And do I need a new seat for the 3 yo? (I am thinking a Radian). Who goes in what seat?

Currently we have buckling issues for the 6 yo's booster in the middle, and it is tricky dropping her off at school. I'd like to have her outboard, ideally. The Evenflo booster has armrests that pivot up and down which helps a little, but usually I have to take the bucket out to reach the belt and buckle/unbuckle myself. (They love me at the kiss-n-ride drop off lane at her school. Ha!)

Can a RF Marathon fit next to an Evenflo booster or FF Radian in a Highlander? Maybe I need a Radian RF for the baby. Help!

Thanks!

Hmm.. i'm thinking a rear facing Graco MyRide outboard (the base of the MyRide is actually slimmer than that of the Radian, but it flares out at the cup holders), booster middle, Marathon outboard. I'm not sure how comfortable that would be for the booster rider. The reason I suggest the MyRide is that the base is so slim that it makes it easier for booster riders to buckle. Otherwise, a radian center, booster passenger and marathon driver's side may work.
