Question 3 carseats in Honda Accord

[MKM]

Hi, there. I have a 2012 Honda Accord and I'm wondering if there are three carseats that will fit in my backseat safely. I have an Evenflo Sureride DLX Booster currently for my 4 yr old, and I have a Britax Advocate for my 2 year old (both kids are front facing) and I am going to have a newborn in an infant seat in a few months. I know my Advocate has to go because its so wide -- so I'm wondering what else could I get to go next to the Evenflo for the 2 year old and infant?

The Advocate is wide on top; if you were to turn it rear-facing, would it fit next to the SureRide with the SureRide in the middle and the Advocate on one side? Just a thought.

You could try a Harmony Defender, they are pretty narrow, but hard to find currently (try walmart, target, and Burlington coat factory) There's also the Diono Radian which is a convertible but very narrow, or it might be worth trying a Graco MySize/Size 4 me, which is not quite as narrow as the Radian.

Advocate RF outboard, Evenflow in middle (do you have a Secure Kid Combination or a Sureride Convertible?) and a narrow infant seat outboard may fit.

If you don't want to rf the 2 year old, then you might be able to fit advocate and Evenflo ff out board but I would think it would be a PIA to haul an infant seat up and over an outboard seat...maybe see if a cocorro or next would fit in the middle if you are open to not using an infant seat.

I know Accords are somewhat generous for a sedan but not all that familiar with their width and what would work 3 across.

Thank you! My 2 year old is very tall so yeah, i don't want her to be rearfacing. I just ordered a Graco Size4Me because it says it has the same dimensions as the MyRide (Graco) and I recall that being pretty narrow as my mom has one at her house for the kids. The Evenflo I just ordered (that I could return...) is a SecureKid DLX Booster. It's not as narrow as I hoped for, but narrower than the Advocate and it's VERY secure and comfortable which I love so I would like to keep that for my oldest child (the 4 year old) if I can and don't mind replacing seats for the other kids. Anyone know if the Graco Snugride is significantly wider than the Chicco KeyFit?

If you don't want to turn the 2 yo RF, the Defender is narrow but it doesn't really puzzle together with other seats (and the SureRide FF is so puzzle-worthy with those rounded-over sides!). It might work though.

This is another idea that might be worth a phone call: an Evenflo Maestro without one or both of its cupholders looks like it might possibly puzzle well with a FF SureRide. http://carseatblog.com/22254/caps-f...nal-model-without-cup-holders/comment-page-1/ The trick is that the last comment on the page says that Evenflo will no longer sell the armrest caps. But it might be worth a call to see if you get the same story or not!

Heck, you could try a Frontier. At least that's one that would be easy for you to try in your car, at Babies R Us or Buy Buy Baby or someplace.

My mom has a 2014, and it is pretty generous in width, but only if you only to seatbelt installs. The lower anchors are too close to the center to wor in a three across. If it is the same design, the buckles are set up nicely and not overlapping, so that helps!

Edit: the seat is also deep, so overhang shouldn't be an issue either. Hers is a Sport if that matters.
