When I ordered mine there was no 5 seat option and to be honest the two rear seats in the 4seat version are very comfortable.  Not sure if that carries across when you have the 5.  I have never needed the 5-seat capability (well not yet).

I have looked at one conversion but the centre seatbelt is not of the right type as I believe all three belts have to be full type after a certain year, rather than just lap belts.  Getting the right belts means changing the whole seat assembly from what I can see.

I've seen the aftermarket kit and also thought that we needed a three point seatbelt in the UK, but having looked at the 6 Series GC, it seems to only have lap strap for the middle seat.  The middle seat in the X6 is more like a half seat, so really only any good if it's 2 or less adults plus the kid(s).
