I need some help with seat configurations in our new 2019 Odyssey, and seat recommendations, please.

Odyssey is the LX model (two captains chairs in middle row). I think i need to buy at minimum 2 new seats (Booster, and baby seat).

Kids:
Riding in third row:
- 9yr old, 65lbs 4'6" (was riding in a 5pt radian in tight three across - ears just met top of seat - NEEDS NEW BOOSTER)
-6 yr old, 55lbs 4'2" (currently in a 5pt radian. I have concerns on whether he's mature enough for a booster with seatbelt. Have heard mixed things about Radian in 3rd row of Odyssey but sounds like 2019 model is doable.)

Riding in second row:
-4yr old, 36lbs 3'5" (currently RF in a Clek Foonf. Wants to be turned around, and we'll probably turn him around with this install)
-New Baby due in 3 weeks (need new car seat, bucket seat style. want to avoid any tethering to front seat so kids have a path to walk through.)

I’m not sure about specific seats, except that your options should be pretty open for an infant seat. I did want to mention that the van will have the feature that allows you to slide the 2nd row seats side to side, so you could create an isle on either side rather than in the center.

The LX trim does not have the Magic Slide seats that all the other 2018+ models of the Odyssey do.

For the oldest (Kid 1) I would look at the Safety 1st Incognito or the Chicco KidFit Plus if you want a more traditional style booster.

If the 6yo (Kid 2) isn’t booster ready, I’d do the Radian FFing for now. When the baby is ready to move out of the infant seat, pass the Radian to Kid 3, Foonf to baby, and get a dedicated booster for Kid 2.

For the baby, I know the Nuna Pipa works well in the Odyssey and allows the captain’s chairs to tilt/slide forward for 3rd row access while installed.

The Car Seat Lady has some great info and videos on the 2018+ Odyssey that should be helpful:
