    Does anybody have a child seat in the back seat of there Prius? I put mine in the middle and I'm having trouble keeping the shoulder harness tight. Any suggestions?

    Pull the seatbelt out all the way until it stops, this will engage the lock. Then shorten it to its normal length. When you try to pull it out again, it will lock and won't extend any further.

    In addition, if you've got a LATCH/Teather, don't be afraid to use it. My toddler seat sits behind the driver's side (I have an 8 year old too, and keeping them separated is important).

    Works fine, and due to the design, I can have mine in and out within 30 seconds.

    Classic took longer as I had to remove the headrest in order to get the latch gizmo to flip around, etc.
