I tried a center install in my Outback again today to test something that I had been wondering. Even if I had been able to get an acceptably tight install (which I wasn't), there's a gap under the base on both sides. Generally I think about the front end hanging off the edge or sides in very narrow pick-up jump seat (ff, of course). What do you think about a gap on the side when installed on a bench seat?
There's at least 3 inches up most of the sides, and there was more than enough room for my hand (and I'd say more than 10% on either side).
The contour of the base actually looks made for this vehicle, except for the gap on the sides.
It didn't seem to be an issue ff as the base is toward the front of the vehicle seat and the hump isn't as pronounced there. There was only a small gap toward the back of the sides, not the full length of the base. Thinking about a Radian, where the base is toward the back of the vehicle seat, it probably would pose more of a problem- even with the more narrow base.
