Will these fit side by side, I know we discussed this before and I am thinking no, it would just be nice if these seats could be next to each other so that there might possibly be space for some one to squeeze into the back seat with out having to always uninstall one seat..

I have a nissan Optra made for the Middle east market. No LATCH ono locking belts... Oh JOY! What a POS!

The Marathon and Radian really take up a lot of space when the are facing opposite directions. Could you use your Maxi Cosi seat and Radian in that car?

I could do it in DH's previous car, a Saturn L100, and current car, a 2008 Scion xB with the Radian FF in the center and a RF MA or Blvd. outboard. Both seats were installed with the vehicle seatbelts rather than LATCH. A narrower back seat and/or more contoured back seat, or less friendly seatbelts with stiff stalks or way ahead of the bight (the usual nemeses for the Radian, pretty much) could make it tougher/impossible. The xB's seat is quite flat and the L100's has a slight hump in the middle and the seat cushion angles slightly toward the back of the car.

I need the Maxi Cosi every day for the taxi ride to school with my daughter. So its out.

I might give the Raidan a try in the center seat.. I have uninstalling the radian but Emma would be thrilled if she could sit right next to her brother in our car like she can in the taxi, In the taxi we are Turbo-MaxiCosi-me 3 across and I am not skinny!

I have done it in a Honda CRV, both belt installs. Radian in the middle, RFing MA dirvers outboard (on the 40 part of a 60/40 split) It just really comes down to if you have the room or not.

I just tried this last night in my Dodge Caliber and it didn't work. I can't stand how tiny my back seat is.

I currently have a rfing MA (outboard) and a ffing Radian (center) in my '04 Honda CR-V (on the 60 part of the 60/40 split), so the carseats are compatible that way, but like a pp said, it really comes down to whether your actual backseat has the room.
