I have the KeyFit 30. The safest position is purportedly in the center of the rear seat, however, the X1 only has LATCH connections for the left and right seats. I was told by a trained technician that, despite the fact that you can easily fit the seat in the center using one LATCH hook from each of the side seats, it has likely not been tested that way. This means that if you wish to use the rear-facing infant seat in the center position, you must use the center belt.
Consequently, I put the seat behind the passenger's seat, which requires me to move the seat up, especially considering you are NOT supposed to drive with the seat handle in front of the child. It is to be snapped behind - thereby taking up even more space (at least on the Chicco KeyFit 30). I wish I was wrong about the handle issue.
One more thing: to get a very snug fit and have the base be level, I advance the seat back on that side one notch.
