Page 24 in the manual has instructions: http://us.diono.com/components/com_jshopping/files/img_products/Diono_US_RadianRXT_Manual_022114_web.pdfAlthough, you may not be able to use it as a booster later with this configuration.

I am so sorry I just looked at my email! Yes we have 2 and my husbands truck does not have latch system either. We love the seat! The only draw back is if you plan on moving it between cars....it is heavy.

I always use it only with seat belt. I think it's more secure if you can use the latches with the metal hooks. Maybe the latches is in use when you don't have seat belt in the center of the middle row of seats.

Stephanie that is false. You have to check your car manual for if it allows latching in the middle seat. If not seat belt install only. LATCH is all depending on if the actual car make/model allow it. Also new laws do not allow latching of a combined weight of car seat and child over 65 pounds.

Does the center seat have LATCH tab of your car? My car doesn't have it in center seat, anyway, it is soooo not convinient to put the baby in and out on the center of the back seat each time.

If both are rear facing it may be possible using the seat belts with no LATCH. Forward facing, though, is not ideal. There is only one set of lower anchors and top tether in the 3rd row of the 2011+ T&C; and they are offset to take up two of the seats. Why they designed it that way I do not know. Installing even just one of them in the back seat properly forward facing unfortunately takes up two seats. It is safer to put the forward facing kids in the second row captain's chairs which both have the tether and lower anchors.

Hi Tia. I am an automotive consultant and as far as I am aware, this seat should work fine with either of the vehicles you mentioned. I know of two that are used in midsize sedans (Camry, CTS) and another that is in a Toyota Venza and they all work with no problem at all. This seat does have the LATCH connections at the base, but they are used solely to keep the seat in place when a child is NOT sitting in it. When a child is in it, the seatbelt keeps both the child and booster seat in place. I have this seat personally in my own car and it has been working well for the past couple of months. I hope this helps and feel free to contact www.autoacademics.net if you have any other questions. Chris, Automotive Advisor and Consultant

Either way can be used when rear-facing. I'd have to reread the forward facing instructions as to whether you can use the latch system then, but we haven't gotten that far ahead yet. We still use it rear-facing at this time.

Absolutely, the seat will work without LATCH. The safety paperwork provided explains how to use it in "older" cars. Basically, without LATCH, Ollie works like many other less expensive boosters, the seat belt is the only thing securing the seat and child. I still think it's a better purchase than others available, we've traveled about 3,000 miles this summer (not exaggerated) and my son hasn't shared any negative feedback. Double check the Clek website for the safety guidelines- I'm sure they have a PDF you can look through to make sure it will work for your car.

It could be placed in the center with a seat belt, as most vehicles do not have a center latch system (and you won't want to use latch anyhow when you see how easy and secure the seat straps in with the "click tight" technology.). However, this car seat is huge and I can't imagine you would be able to get a person on each side of it unless you drive a crazy huge vehicle. We drive an Odessey. We probably couldn't buckle it in the center if either the second or third row and still have room for the other passengers to be able to buckle, as the center seats are considerably smaller than a standard side seat.

If you have a car with three rear seatbelts, yes. Use the center one and latch it around your waist above the air mattress. It is the equivalent of a lap belt.

If your car has a 3 point system, then yes. I installed my belt system in a '94 Isuzu truck because my old one wouldn't retract. I only installed the belt because I didn't want to remove my seat belt sensor. Everything works fine. I had to get used to the new belt locking when it was in use, it would not allow any slack for movement. This didn't happen after a couple of uses. The system was easy to install. Make sure you make sure it will fit your car before you install it.

No latch capability is needed. This car seat is only secured by using the seat belt in your car. When your child is NOT in the car seat, it is safest to buckle the car seat in using the seat belt, otherwise it could cause serious harm if you're in an accident because it is not secured by a latch system.

I completely understand about using the middle seat and agree that is the safest spot. This car seat protector does not require that it be placed in any specific area to be used. There are no latches or loops attached to it. There shouldn't be any reason why you could not use this in the middle seat besides maybe overlapping a little on each of the other seats. I believe you should be fine :-)

Yes. We have two installed using the Latch system and anchors. The only thing a little odd about this cover is the flap that goes over the center, fold-down arm rest. But that has zero effect on car seats. All-in-all the cover is great and works well. I just wish they had it for the third row seat, too.

No, you don't have to use the latch system. I have all 3 installed in the 3rd row seat of my surburban using seat belts. They all fit but getting the 3rd buckled took a little effort but it was doable.

It has latch but you can use the seat without the latch as well. The latch is not adjustable (cannot tighten them) so it is mainly there to keep the seat from moving around in the car. Hope that helps!

Yes it works very well. Not matter use seat belt or super latch. It will fit.
