2014 Ford Explorer and Inflatable seat belts

[Unregistered]

I have both diono radian r120s and britax frontier clicktight. Up until this weekend we have had the radians installed with the LATCH system in our explorer, my children are now close to 45 lbs so I am trying to install the seats with the seat belt. The problem is that the second row has inflatable seat belts, which aren't working. I came here to see if they were even an option and just read that they aren't compatible with the radians. So I have a few questions:
Are Britax Frontier click tight compatible with inflatable seat belts?
Does anyone know which car seats are compatible?
If the explorers manual gives me a much higher weight limit for the LATCH system than the carseat manuals, is it safe to go by the explorer manual or would the car seat manuals weight limit trump?

I would use the third row but there is only one top tether anchor point (whyy would ford do this!?) So that only fixes the problem for one child (I have two 45 lbs kiddos)

Besides answering these questions, any advice is welcome!
I currently drive a 2007 town and country and have zero car seat issues (thats where i use the britax seats) my boyfriend is the one with the explorer and I already hate it

We also have a 2014 Explorer but did not want the inflatable seat belts. Britax does allow use with most of their seats.

I'm not a tech but looks like you would follow Ford's LATCH weight limits.

Unless specified otherwise by the vehicle manufacturer, assume a 40 lb child is the vehicle lower anchor limit for the Frontier 90

How old are your children? I would probably look for very lightweight car seats for them to keep them installed with LATCH until they are old enough for boosters. Evenflo Securekid and Graco Tranzitions are both reasonable options, as is the Evenflo Sureride. The Sureride is the lightest weight option of the 3 (also the cheapest) and could keep them in LATCH until 55 pounds, but it can't be used as a booster later.

The Britax Frontiers work great and are approved for use with the inflatable belts. Britax has the specific instructions for installing with them on their website. Ivve helped a friend with her Frontier in her Explorer with them. It was a nice, solid install.
