3rd row has nothing, it's just standard shoulder-lap belts.
So LATCH are the rings in the seat base. LATCH is only in the 2nd row on the X5. There is no LATCH loop set in the middle seat either.
There's another concept of the overhead tether/anchor which I thought you were talking about. Some larger, heavier carseat use this in conjunction with the lapbelt (not LATCH).
The X5 does have the tether anchor on the back of the 2nd row...eventually, I will have to move one of my child seats to the middle of the 2nd row, use the lap belts, but that will ideally require a tether/anchor support.
Anyways, try to use LATCH whenever possible, as it's the easiest install for most car seats. But once you try to put something in the 3rd row or the middle seat of 2nd row, then you need the do the lap belt system with the anchor, and that's a pain if you have to install/uninstall many times.
