Hi,
We will have two Clek Oobr's and an infant seat in our van later this year and i am hoping someone has experience with the Oobr in the third row. I know that there are only a few hbb that can be used safely in the third row of the DGC (wish i'd done more research before buying the van now lol) but i haven't been able to find anyone that has tried the Oobr to confirm whether it can or can't be used.
Otherwise i'll check out a tech in my area, but thought it was worth asking.
Thanks in advance :)

Will you be able to put the oobr in the center seat of the third row or will it have to be outboard? In my experience, the center seat is compatible with more of the hbb's.
I don't know if it will work outboard. I do have a Dodge Grand Caravan but not an oobr.

I haven't tried lugging the Oobr back there yet, but i don't need the other seats back there for anyone else, so i could put the Oobr in any seat. For some reason putting the seat in the middle didn't even cross my mind lol, i guess the way the seat belt comes from the ceiling etc i didn't think i would be able to use it with a booster.

The oobr is really heavy so I'd personally want to make sure i had a spot that I could use the rigid latch. Which o believe would only be possible in the center of the third row an even then, you'll need to make sure having it latched doesn't interfere with the belts.

It won't be able to be latched in the third row. The latch is offset and doesn't match up with either the center seatbelt position or the outboard spot.

I would get a different booster if you plan to put a boostered child in the 3rd row. I also am not a fan of such a heavy booster being used without using lower anchors. Like it was mentioned, you won't be able to LATCH it in the 3rd row as the lower anchors don't line up between the center seat belt position.
