Suggest a convertible for me to go next to FR85 or TFP

DS2 is only 3mos old right now and in a Graco SS1. He's getting ridiculously huge, and I'm starting to look at convertibles for him.

I drive an '08 Odyssey and this is our current set up:
4yo DS1 in a FR85 in the passenger side captain's chair
DS2 on the Plus One seat right next to him in the Graco
2yo DD is FF in the 3rd row, driver's side in a TFP.

I wanted DD RF longer (was aiming for 3 or whenever she outgrew by weight since she's already 30lbs), but I can't make it work without a huge hassle to get someone in/out of the 3rd row. None of my kids can buckle or unbuckle at all on their own. Ideally I'd put DD back RF in the second row with DS2 RF next to her using the passenger captain's chair and the plus one seat and then have DS1 in 3rd row on the driver's side. I really like the TFP for RF. If I keep DD FF, I'm considering getting her a new combo seat and just getting a new cover for DS2 to use in the TFP since the one we have is pink...

We have an '06 Ody but its a 7 passenger. Its actually easy to put two rearfacing in the 2nd row if you take out the plus one and slide the passenger seat over. Then put the ff in the 3rd row passenger side. Its easy to reach the child in back to buckle. I also install using LATCH in the captain's seat passenger side so I can slide the front seat and that one forward anytime there isn't a front passenger. Its not really needed but does give even more room.
