    We just purchased a v five, and I tried to latch the children's seats into the car. It seemed like the latch holds were in the wrong place as they were in the center of each rear seat and spaced too far apart (need two for each seat). I looked in the manual and it wasn't what I had in my car. I will be taking the car into the dealership, but was wondering if anyone noticed anything similar or had the same problem.

    The anchors you are looking at are the cargo hooks, not the latch anchors. The latch anchors are in the seat cushion, right where the seat cushion touches the back of the seat, hidden behind a fold. There is zipper - unzip it an you get access to the latches.

    It took me a while to figure it out, too...until I popped open the manual, that is. But who wants to look things up in manual ;-).
