Space between inner LAs is 15.6 inches (396 mm). Head Restraints (HRs): To tether, route a 2-point (single-strap) tether over the center of the HR, and a 3-point (V-shaped) tether around each side. Owner’s Manual (OM) Clarification: Although some OMs do not state that a CR may be installed in the center seating position using LATCH, the vehicle manufacturer says it IS safe to install a CR there, per the notes above, and that doing so is approved IF proper installation is achieved.
