We had third row bench seats installed on both of our H2's (5 kids). The cargo area of the H3 is small but I did find a place that might have a solution for those of us with a small basketball team.
The following pics are of a seat that mounts on the existing cargo anchor holes (no drilling!) and folds up. The seat faces inwards. Theorectically there is room for two seats that face each other but leg room will be tight. My wife uses her car for carpooling the kids to school and groceries so this should work. It comes is leather and vinyl.
I prefer a rear facing bench but I can't find anything yet. Does anyone have any other ideas or leads?

Looks cool. Where can we get them? Send pictures if you insall them. I will likely do the same. You can never have too many seats, unless your kids friends drive you nuts!!

The back row seats are my kids favorite. They thinks it's cool to be able to make faces at cars behind us.

I was wondering how you were going to solve that problem http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif Are you going to throw a roof rack on for extra cargo?

Yeah, a roof rack would be nice but we usually take the Suburban when we all go out. The H3 is basically an around the town vehicle for the wife. Aside from the gas issue, she had some difficulty finding parking at the gym, parks, malls, etc.
