2009 Nissan Quest-where to put two rear facing??

We recently purchased a 2009 Nissan quest when we found out we were expecting a 4th. Right now I have mdd (6-48 lbs) in HB Turbo in 3rd row, odd (8.5-68 lbs) in 2nd row captain chair in backless turbo and ydd (14 months-17lbs) rf in a myride behind driver.

My question is when the new baby comes where should we put him/her. There are a couple issues to consider. 3rd row headrest aren't movable so odd is too tall to sit in the back (unless she can not be in a booster-she will be 9 by then). Also, to load/unload for school they have to use the passenger side sliding door so I don't want to block that. We can purchase new seats with pretty much an unlimited budget. Any suggestions on where to put everyone and what in? Thanks!

Most 9 years olds don't actually fit the adult seat belts without a booster yet. ;) The Safety First Incognito may work w/the immovable headrests...or a Cosco Top Side or Harmony Juvenile/Literider. These are all shorter boosters, esp the Incognito.

You could put the Myride in the 3rd row drivers side and lower that baby down into his seat. Does the driver side second row seat slide forward on a track?

The third row headrests should be tall enough for a child in a booster. They are tall enough for adult me anyway. They only have to be eye level to be tall enough to do their job.

I thought she would probably still be too young at least for a year or so after #4 is born to be without a booster. She is actually in an Affix booster not a TB (not sure any difference). I can move her to the 2nd row captains chair but I guess I am just thinking it will be a huge PITA to have a RF seat in the 3rd row. Any experience with that? However, it might be necessary anyway because of the loading/unloading issue. The top of her ears are at the top of the headrest so I assumed so was too tall to sit in the 3rd row?
