Minivans with all shoulder belts & head restraints (cheap!)

A good friend unexpectedly needs a new vehicle and doesn't have much to spend. I'm trying to compile a list of affordable used 7+p vehicles and the earliest years that they had all shoulder belts at the minimum. One missing headrest isn't the end of the world, seeing as how I know how to add them :p But all headrests as well would be a bonus.

Here's what I have so far:
- Avoid Caravan / T&C / Voyager like the plague
- All Ford Freestars
- All Uplanders have shoulder belts, but missing 1 headrest
- 2004+ Sienna
- 2006+ Sedona LWB

1999 or newer Honda Odyssey will have head rests and lap/shoulder belts in all positions. An '05-'07 Dodge Grand Caravan would also have head rests and lap/shoulder belts in all positions while also avoiding the awful belt fit issues in the '08+ version.

Does the ody have a separate shoulder belt that comes down from the ceiling? I was looking at pics and could have sworn I saw a lap belt in an early 2000s ody.

Thanks guys!!

I was looking at pics of Caravans and it looks like the ones without the problem outboard belts only have a lap belt in the middle of the 3rd row.

Updated list:
- Avoid Caravan / T&C / Voyager
- All Ford Freestars
- All Uplanders have shoulder belts, but missing 1 headrest
- 2004+ Sienna
- 2006+ Sedona LWB
- 1999+ Odyssey
- 2004+ Nissan Quest
