Your never going to get kids seats in the back of any xtra / space cab pick up, all there good for is bit of storage for kit n saws and more room for driver & passinger to recline seats back

Even the double cabs ant no good unless you like getting kicked all the time as the baby's seats touch the backs of front seats

 

 

Load of rubbish!

My wife has a Navara double cab and both kids seats fit fine in the back. The babies rear facing seat on an isofix base fits behind the drivers seat fine with me driving and I'm 6'5"!

This is the mixed bag of responses I was getting from Google searches! Guess I just need to take the seats with me and try em. If I need to go for a double cab how do you chaps keep it vaguely clean with gear in there?

You,ll defo need a d/c & iv just check our kids seats the maxi cosy recline & swivel seats, when the baby's fall asleep they recline hence need that bit more room but also with bigger kids there feet will hit back of front seats

 

No problems in crew cab transits bags of room

Sometimes I think about putting my 7yr old in the pickup bed and letting the Labrador sit up front, the dog whinges less!

Thanks for the replies. As long as I can get a forward facing seat in the back the rear facing can go in the front (air bag permitting). As said it will only be occasional. Think I'll take the seats with me when I view it

 

I don't think there is the option to turn the airbag off in the front of the Rangers ( older ones anyway) so becareful putting a seat in the front

25% of fatal accidents are caused by stuff flying about in an accident

Better to put stuff in a tool box in the back.....

If you have a van put a dog guard behind the front seats

 

Getting your head cut off makes a hell of a mess - and yes I have seen it....

Agree with ArthurBottlesworth.

There are some solid dog guards at travall website. Might be worth checking out. They are not cheap though.

Hi, sorry to drag up an old thread, just wondering Treefolk, how did you fair out with the child seats in te ranger. Was it a runner or did you go for a proper crew cab. Thanks
