Another 3 across question . . . . :)
We have the 2014 Subaru Outback. I now have my 18 m/o RF in a Radian RXT passenger side, 7 y/o on a Bubble Bum in the center, and my 5 y/o behind the driver in a Frontier 85. This arrangement does the job but my 7 y/o can barely wedge himself into the center and I am really not comfortable with him being in a backless booster. He is about 47lbs and 50", very thin. We are willing to buy seats if we can get a safer configuration for everyone but I am loosing my mind trying to figure out what that might be:confused:
Please let me know, what would you do? I would really appreciate your help!
THANKS:)

Can you try putting the Radian in the center? That might leave enough room for a high back since there won't be a carseat next too the shoulder area.

We tried that first, but no latch in the center and after multiple tries we weren't able to get a tight install with the seatbelt. The buckle is hitting up against the belt path, if that makes sense?

Without knowing anything about your car I'm going to try suggesting that you twist the buckle stalk up to three full turns so that it won't hit the belt path. Hopefully your buckle stalks are able to be twisted, if not please disregard.
