#41 of 42 Re: where to tether a rear facing marathon?? [wdhyte] by wdhyte Sep 18, 2009 (8:15 am)
Replying to: wdhyte (Sep 17, 2009 5:54 pm) I believe the others to be correct in the latch configuration. There are 2 sets of latch points on the outboard seats but you can't use both inboard anchor points if you're putting a seat in the center...this of course would prevent you from using the two outboard positions for latch anchors and you'd have to go with the seat-belts as someone else stated. I'll look tonight but I don't imagine there is an actual center set of latch points as I inferred from the manual. Your best bet would be to use the outboard latch points and the center seatbelt. All 3 positions do have a separate tether point as well. Replies to this message: wdhyte (Sep 18, 2009 7:23 pm)

Replying to: wdhyte (Sep 18, 2009 8:15 am) confirmed; only 2 sets of lower latch points in the 2nd row of the 2009 CX-9. While you could certainly put a seat in any of the 3 positions, you can only lower latch the two outboard seats OR the center seat (not all at the same time)...the center must be held in by a seat belt if you are using the two outboard seats (the latch points) at the same time that you're using the center position.
