New car seat for my princess in the Taco

My 6 month old daughter outgrew her infant seat so quickly so I had to find something that was not only safe but not so bulky since the Taco doesn't have the largest cabin. My 2015 Golf R was the roomiest vehicle I've owned in the past few years but that's another story (see past posts).

I went with the Diono Radian RXT.

One of the biggest benefits to this seat is that it fits kids from 5 pounds all the way to 120 pounds. So it's her last seat.

I'm 6' 1" and was able to get this seat in the middle spot which usually doesn't happen especially since this is longer than several other brands. The secret is the width. It's 17 inches wide. With a mid-sized vehicle you can actually line up 3 of these seats which is amazing. They usually can only accommodate 2 and squeeze in a think adult or child.

Taco gets new skin!

Picked up these Clazzio seat covers after a few weeks of deliberation. I wanted to get them pretty quick so I chose all black. There's a custom choice of outer color, insert and threading colors. You can have custom headrest embroidery too as well as seat heaters.

In total it took me close to 3 hours to install. It's such a tight fit. It's like trying to put on skinny pants. Not like I ever tried but I've watch videos of people struggling. 😼

I think they came out GREAT! I recommend this upgrade to anyone. Just be prepared for super tired fingers.
