How important is the crotch strap for the rear seat pax? I would like to dispense with it unless there is a problem with people sliding forward without it.

A fair number of builders don't have a rear crotch strap. I don't.

I kept it in thinking it would not hurt and it provides additional tie down points if I have the rear seats out to carry extra baggage.

I spent some time trying to figure out how to do a five point harness on the front seats - never solved that problem.

Van says the crotch strap keeps you from slipping out from under the belt.  He called it "submarining", which happens without a crotch strap because of the semi-reclining position.  I've sat in back plenty of times and it's not even really noticeable.  My kids have been putting then on by themselves since they were 7 or 8--can't be that difficult. And I guess if you squashed the junk in an accident, then the belt did it's job, right?  I vote to keep 'em.

I kept mine, and I wish there was a way to put a five-point on the front seats.
