I came home from work last night and was pleasently surprise by the fact that my Frontier was there waiting for me. Just for fun I tried installing it in my 2000 Suburban (the seat is going in dh's '06 Silverado). I installed it using the short belt path passanger side outboard 2nd row. I was ready for the fight that never happened. It installed almost as quickley as my GN and was shake the car rock solid. I hope it goes this easily in dh's truck. It will be installed in the middle seat of his Silverado (hopefully). I didn't have time to play anymore than that because we were going to dinner at my mom's and didn't get home until late. I will definetly be playing this weekend. Oh, and it had a 5/08 DOM!:D

Here's some pic's installed next to the GN:

Ok, I played with the Frontier today in the '06 Silverado (crew cab). It was a no go for SBP and LBP in the middle. I was able to get a good install with latch though in that position. Chevy has a 48lb latch limit and since ds only weighs 36lbs and is already 5yo we will be good there probably until he out grows the harness. I was able to get a good install on the outboard driver side with the LBP. I am not able to install the seat in the middle of my 2nd row '00 Suburban because it was incompatable with the lap only belt, but install was rock solid in the outboard passanger side position. I did not try it at all in the 3rd row.
