    I’m looking for options on rear facing car seats that fit behind the driver or passenger and will then switch to forward facing. I have a 2019 double cab TRD off road. Pictures would be great. I’m 5’8” 160 so I don’t need the seat to be all the way back but I don’t want to be against the wheel either. I want a seat that he will grow with until he’s out of them. It’s staying in the truck so I’m not worried about weight if it fits.

    I have a seat that fits in the middle but would like it to a side. Pictures of how it fits in your Tacoma’s would be great. diono rainier Seemed to be one that would fit but isn’t made any longer. I’ve seen Graco Slim fits and 4evers mentioned but no good pictures about directly behind the driver or passenger. Pictures of the position and spacing would be great

    Diono 3XRT is amazing and works from 9 pounds to 120 pounds. Its pricey but cant put a price on your kids safety. They also fit super well considering how small the cabs are

    Does it fit behind your driver and passenger seats without pushing you into the dash?

    We used a Graco 4ever in our Wranglers. The kids are in boosters now. Let me see if we still have that 4ever and I'll get a pick this evening with it in the truck

    Yes, especially if you buy the foam wedge that goes under it. I'm 6'=3" too for what its worth. This photo is on the passenger side, but the seat is all the way back.

    I ended up getting the Diono and it fits behind the passenger seat. I like the low profile arm rest too. Makes it easier getting the little guy in and out.

    That seat is awesome. Unfortunately a bit too pricey for me, though. I’ll continue counting the days until my kid can sit facing forward.
