Two forward facing seat next to each other

Besides the Radian, does anyone know what other seats are more narrow than the MA, Blvd, Decathalon. I'm trying to fit two seats forward facing next to each other in a MB GL450 so that I can swing down one of the 2nd row seats to allow access to the back seat. The vehicle seats keeps getting caught on the seat that is installed in the middle. Does anyone know what other seats are somewhat narrow?

The Scenera is fairly narrow. I think there are a few Evenflo combo seats that are fairly narrow too. I will have to check.

Another vote for the Cargo. Which seat is it that the vehicle seat is catching on? The Marathon? Have you tried putting your RN there in that middle spot?

Not a tech so if this is way off feel free to ignore but can you leave the access seat down? It seems to be that even in 3 acrosses the seats aren't taking up only 33% of the width (because they puzzle, they actually take up more space but because they puzzle they "share" space and they also some times hang off the seat sides) so even if you have a 40/60 seat even the narrowest seats will take up more than 60% even if each seat only took 33% of the seat space. but if you could leave the access row down it might make the situation more doable since that would allow for that lip of hang over at the seat back that is keeping you from being able to do it in the first place...?

I am having this same problem in my truck! My access seat is getting caught on my Roundabout.

I'm interested in hearing some suggestions; I've been leaning towards a Radian.
