I do believe that they should have put child locks on the H3 but I have a question for everyone and I am not trying to start sh!t here, just asking. How is it that most, if not all, of us survived without child locks or even car seats? I don't have small children so I can't say I understand the issue because of experience but why is it that generations of kids survived before us yet now a vehicle is unsafe without them? Not knocking anyone for wanting them, just curious. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

We just got lucky and the speed limit was lower? I dunno, but with the choices we have today, not keeping my son buckled or restrained isn't a gamble I would take.

I agree 1000% about keeping kids buckled and restrainted. I am always wondering where the cops are when I see some idiot with their kid jumping around the car

I was really just questioning the child locks on the rear doors.

If you lock the doors from the front, can the rear doors be opened by the pull of the handle?

Just wondering if there is another reason that made the child-locks unnecessarty.

I have not tried it but would bet the don't since the front won't. Only vehicles that I know of that will do that are Fords and that is only in the front.

When the doors are locked, you have to first open (unlock) the lever right above the door release lever.

Can you disable the ability for those in the rear to unlock the doors?

Just trying to think of a work around...

Anyone get a fullsize, rear facing car seat into it? Did you have to move the front seats forward? or could they be fully back?

Please post photos of your install if you have them.

Can you get two forward facing carseats and one rearfacing car seat installed at the same time?

How family friendly is the H3?!?!?!? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Interesting. Looks like that might work after they are out of carsets. Carseats are only legal and safe when facing forward or to the rear.
