3 forward facing car seats in a Touran

We have a VW Touran can currently fit our 3 seats in but with the baby seat rear facing. When we turn this one round to face forward it doesn’t fit. How have others managed to fit 3 in a row in a Touran? We currently have two silver cross toddler seats (one in the rear facing position) and one Britax Romer. Looking for some narrower seats which will fit. One of our toddlers will move to a child seat in the next 6 months.

How old are the kids? Couldn't you just keep the baby rear facing? The Silver Cross seats have the same limits for RF and FF.

They are 5,3 and 2 months. The problem we have at the moment is that we can only fit the baby in the middle seat. I want the older two next to each other so they can watch the iPad together!

Ah I see. It's the 3yo you want to turn forward facing? Is the 5yo already in a high back booster or is that who you want to change in the next few months?

It's probably going to be easiest to put the booster seat in the middle and then have one RF one FF each side. Or a belt fitted 5 point harness seat in the middle.

Or they are good age gaps for multimac if that would work for you?
