More Than 73% Of People Are Installing This Wrong: 4runner Baby Seat

Getting prepared to bring our baby home means getting the little guy's spot in the 4runner set up! In this video, I go through everything I learned about mounting an infant seat in the 4runner from positions to seat belt vs. Latch, along with a few other helpful tips.

Perfect video, I'm going to be a father next April, but congratulations on your boy!

[@CanadianGearhead]

Thanks, congrats to you too!

[@Stryckerrr]

After a year later hopefully ur boy is nice and healthy like mine 🙏🏽 i love watching this again to be sure lol anyways if anyone here still having trouble you can take it to your local Fire department and they can install it for free! Cheers!

[@JoeTirone]

Congrats! Expecting my first born in April. I played around with my car seat a little and I’m considering the middle seat. My car seat documentation notated a maximum distance between latch points. The left/right seat latch points were well within range and the seat felt very secure. Going to play around with it more but just some food for thought.

[@CanadianGearhead]

Congrats Joe, get as much sleep as you can right now!

Congrats on your new son! My GF and I have a baby coming in the fall! This was a great video idea, thank you! I'm not sure how far along you are now but assuming you're still in the diaper stage my gf found a bunch of free diaper deals for first time parents, from hello bello, pampers, Huggies etc... The hello bello ones are great, they send you roughly 75 diapers spread across different ages/sizes. Hope it's something that might help. Huggies and Pampers sent like 10 each but hey, they're still free.

[@CanadianGearhead]

Congrats to you too! He's 3 months now. My wife signed up for the huggies one but didn't know about the others - we'll check it out!

[@KilgoreUSA]

You’re going to be a great dad.

[@CanadianGearhead]

Thanks, I sure hope so!

[@2-old-Forthischet]

I sense a change in the content here. ;) I brought my son home from the hospital in a 1976 Firebird! Then a couple of years later, took him rock crawling in a 1973 Blazer! If you saw those backseats, you'd cringe!

[@brickafide]

Haven’t finished the video yet, but a thought came to mind that I don’t disagree with you that I like the hard mount method better but then I started to think about whether I trust the straps of that come with the car seat as much as I would trust a Toyota seatbelt.. 🤔 I don’t have a kid yet, so I have no knowledge of strap standards for baby car seats, but just a thought.

[@ProbablyRight]

Congratulations!

[@CanadianGearhead]

Thanks!

[@compassmarkets..]

That MR2 looks good

[@CanadianGearhead]

Thanks!

[@bakiretinaibunaki2671]

Thank u so much for your video 📹 it very great and help me for my baby boy Thank u ❤

How has the 4Runner been with the car seat and space? Thinking of getting rid of my f150 while value is still pretty high and getting a 4th gen runner but I have a 13 year old daughter and a 1 year old

[@CanadianGearhead]

It's pretty tight with a rear facing seat. The passenger seat needs to be pushed pretty far forward and there's no chance of fitting it behind my driver's seat. If we had another baby, we'd be car shopping for sure. With a forward facing seat, I think it would be fine

[@llamamanguy]

Thanks man, I got a little one on the way and this was helpful. You had any issues with your front seats starting to feel rock hard? my 2004's are very very hard.

[@CanadianGearhead]

Congrats! My seats are still pretty soft - I'd recommend doing some kind of leather treatment as it's probably the coating that has dried up and got harder

[@mustanggang5.0]

A few weeks ago I bought a 08 4Runner with 95k miles since I’m expecting my first child in a few weeks. This suv is pretty cool

[@CanadianGearhead]

Congrats on your new baby (and 4runner haha)

[@gadawg3434]

Hey man i was wondering which exaust tip you use to fit your 4th gen. Ive looked on your previous videos and couldn’t quite find if you have mentioned it or not. Thanks

[@CanadianGearhead]

It's the satin black option that comes with the Gibson exhaust

[@gadawg3434]

@@CanadianGearhead Aye thanks man. Also, do you know if the 2.7 inch inner diameter exhaust tip from that website would fit on a 2.5 inch stock exhaust? this is for my 4th gen of course
