I am new so ask more questions if you need to...
Stats
2004 suburban
2 latches middle row and one on the seat that reclines
4 boys
4.5yo 55lbs currently in a Marathon (FF) w/ top notch
2.75 yo (3 in Oct) 35lbs also in a Marathon FF second notch down
Twins - 13month still in infant seats (one baby trend and one graco ??) they are bwt 20 and 25 lbs I think
We have the older two in the back on either side and the twins in the middle row one behind driver and one in the middle.

I plan on putting the twins in the same positions RF in the Marathons... BUT what new seats do I get?? Another Marathon? Radian? I am unsure of what two seats to get...I ordered Frontiers and were unable to get them to fit. The seat belts were too short for the LBP and it wasn't tight enough for the SBP... I was wanting the Frontier so I could go high in 5pt but also use it as a high back booster in the future.
What do you suggest??

Consider a booster for the older one?
I just got my Monterey today and love how it fits my 6.5 year old.
EDITED-- just saw that he's only 4.5
What about a Nautilus? It's a bit narrower than a Frontier, and has a good range for the booster after the 65lb harness. I don't really have any suggestions for the other kids though, Radians are your best bet for being able to rearrange seats at any given time. Although, if you have an 8 passenger Suburban, I'm not sure you'd need to anytime soon.

Have you looked at the Nautilus yet? If he is already 4.5 yrs old, he probably won't hit 65lbs until he reaches 5 yrs old and, at that age, some children are mature enough for the high back booster (as long as it fits properly of course). I would consider Nautilus seats for the two older boys
