I see nowhere to add this, hence the new thread. Just a shout out to anyone
who is wondering....I just completed a successful install of a frontier in a 2006 Prius, driver's side outboard, long belt path. I suspect the short belt path might work if you have the strength and the patience. LBP gives a rock solid install, and once I understood what to do (this was my fisrt lbp install ever) it took under 5 mins. watch the youtube video ([ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uuovrWhQp0"]YouTube - Britax Frontier: Installation Using Vehicle Lap/Shoulder Belt; Long Path[/ame]) and it's pretty clear.
no camera right now, but if i get a chance later i will try to post pics.

LOL. So you didn't make that video, right? I started watching it with the sound down and thought, "Wow! That's a really professional-looking video!" Then I thought, "Wait...that's not a Prius!"

I'm glad you got a good installation. My understanding is that the Frontier usually works pretty well with the LBP. It's the short belt path that usually causes issues.

I have found the Prius to be amazingly good for car seats, too. (As long as you don't need three of them!)

Good to know it fits well. :thumbsup:

oops - sorry if I gave the impression that it was a video clip I made. Ooops
Mine certainly would have been significantly less....polished :D

Yes, the Prius has been good - although I never could get a good install with the Radian. Might again be a question of my lack of patience more than anything though.
