X7 LCI - child seat in middle seat of 2nd row bench

I'm trying to install the car seat in the middle seat of the second row bench. I'm using seat belts instead of isofix anchors (coz middle seat doesn't have recommended anchors) and it installed well but while attempting to connect to the backseat tether anchors, does the anchor go 'above' the middle seat headrest (as the arrow in the pic)? I don't see a way to pull it up to pass under it. Anyway to pass it 'under' the headrest?

I don’t have a middle seat, but on my capt chairs the tether goes under the head rest.

Yea, and it goes under the headrest on the far right and left of the bench seat as well! But not sure if the middle seat headrest rises or not? Or if there is a better way to tether middle seat?

Tether goes under the headrest. Need to press the release on both sides
Correct seat belt install is stronger than isofix.

Thank you! It was very well ‘hidden’. Was able to squeeze it out!
