While trying to figure out 3 across, I came up with this question:
Is there a limit to the number of towels one can use to get a good fit?
I tested out my mother in law's BMW 330 with 2 Radians and an infant carrier. The curvature of the rear seat makes 3 across impossible... unless I make liberal use of towels. With about 3-4 towels on the outboard seats, (and 1-2 for the center) I'm able to "even out" the seat for good installations. This, I consider was bit of an extreme case but I wanted to see if we were caught in a bind.
On the other hand, I'd imagine that those people having difficulty with cars like the center back of the Subaru Legacy, could use towels to raise the seat enough for good installations.
Furthermore, the towels can be used to help stagger like-seats that are adjacent to each other.
