Using the seatbelt for the Marathon would have easily been doable but the mom preferred LATCH and it worked :thumbsup:

Very proud of myself that I made this work.
2008 Dodge Avenger(same as Chrysler Sebring as far as I know)
Driver/middle/passenger
RF CA/RF Keyfit no base/RF AOE
All seatbelt installs as the UAS in my car hates me. Keyfit was a bit of a pain but it worked. All very solid, not tech checked as it was only like this for about 1/2 hour.

I have a couple more for the '06 Pilot 3rd row --

RF Radian/RF MyRide/RF CA
RF Radian/RF Coccoro/(FF)ProSport (harnessed. It would fit boostered but be *very* difficult to buckle.)

I could allllmost fit RF Radian/RF MR/FF MA; it was in the parking lot at BRU so it would be worth a try if someone with more tenacity and time wanted to try it.

Also I think the RF Radian/Titan works, either FFing or RFing, and you could probably fit a variety of seats in the third spot.

2008 Prius

Parkway (old style), RF Radian XTSL (with the new boot), Parkway (old style)

I initially installed the Radian using the locking mechanism of the seatbelt. However, by the time I got the belt tight enough to install the seat securely, it was also tight enough that the shoulder portion was tilting the Radian (also, the little plastic trim piece where the shoulder belt comes out of the backrest was being pulled out by the force on the shoulder belt). I ended up reinstalling the next day with locking clip, and it looks much better. Buckle stalk has two full twists; locking clip is sitting flat inside the belt path. This was not an easy install, but ended up solid. Wish the seat would go more upright, as it lightly touches the back/inner edges of the front vehicle seats when DD is in the carseat, and Prius manual doesn't want anything touching. We may try moving vehicle seats forward a notch.

The boosters are a pain to buckle, but doable. I'm sure I'll get quicker with a little practice.

1997 Pontiac TranSport Minivan

All are seatbelts installs, and TT for FF. Outboard belts are l/s with locking latch plates. Centre is lap only with ALR belt. There are only 2 tether anchors in this vehicle and the seating positions are outboard 2nd row.

2nd row passenger (L/S)/middle(LAP ONLY)/driver (L/S)

FF Evenflo Bolero TT (the OEM tether strap will NOT reach the anchor and requires a tether extender which can be ordered from Evenflo)
RF Scenera (pool noodles required for decent recline angle)
FF Radian XTSL TT

FF 3-in-1 EB (being used as a 5 pt harness) TT
RF Scenera (pool noodles required for decent recline angle)
FF Radian XTSL TT

All are rock solid with little effort :thumbsup:

One more to add to my 03 Dodge Caravan 3rd row bench is scooted all the way forward to allow for more cargo space in back.

RF Titan
FF Radin
RF EFTA

The only way to adjust the EFTA is to recline the vehicle seat (after undoing the tether on the Radian) so I just made sure it was correct first. This is a temporary set-up for me though but it works.

Kids are: 20mo RF Titan 25 lbs, 34"
6yo FF Radian 39 lbs, 45"
3yo (almost 4) RF EFTA 29 lbs, 37"

And the Harmony Literider is in the Captain's chair for my 9yo, 61 lbs, 52"

I removed the other captain's chair, I need to haul a bunch of empty boxes.

Driver to passenger side:
TurboBooster (with back), Radian 80 (FF), Complete Air (RF)
All seatbelt installs (switched retractors for installed seats), Radian with tether.
Radian: 1.5 twists of seatbelt, no recline. CA: about 32 degree angle. Front seat barely useable; booster hard to buckle, and Radian was hard to put in due to seatbelt's position over crack in seat leading to difficulty feeding slack into the retractor. But it works.

I am a tech.
