Child seats for the i8 for US owners

Anyone have any info on recent car seats that fit . Everything that showed up in the search was either UK or outdated threads . I’ve tried the Diogo 3R already and it was hitting the roof , I have a clek in our suv which I know won’t fit . So trying to find another owner who has a guaranteed seat that will fit . My son is 3 years old for reference

Are you looking for rear facing or front facing. I had my child in front facing. I removed the seat bottom from rear seats. You still had to move passenger seat forward for leg room. But it is doable.

Hey there he is in a forward facing setup in my other vehicles . Just everything I trying in the i8 is either hitting the roof or if it barley fits his legs are into the back of the seat too much . I picked up one of the rider safe vests I saw when searching and am going to try that out for now until I can find something that fits really well. Honestly wish they made something super specific for the car even if it was crazy over priced I’d still buy it to keep the interior room less cramed for family rides

Ride safe vest are great i use them from both my kids. If they are too low get a bottom half of the booster seat to raise them up.
