Default Living with a baby and S5 cab

Just thought I would share our setup now that we have a baby join us in our family. We have a Peg Perago Primo Viaggio SIP 30/30 infant car seat. The install was straightforward using the LATCH points. With the bucket installed, there is still ample room for my wife in the front seat. Not sure if you can tell in the photo but her seat is tilted more upright but not all the way forward.

Loading the little guy is easy with the top down. But I don't think it's possible with the top up (I haven't tried). Once we go front facing it will hopefully be easier. We have so much fun driving around with the top down, there is no way I am giving this car up.

Thanks everyone. When I was first researching this subject I didn't come across many photos of baby seats in the S5. I hope less people end up selling their cab when they have a baby!

My children are fully grown. things have changed.

Question: do you have to get bigger baby seats as the child gets older? How old/big before no baby seat required?

Great idea to put the top down. Would would for other cargo as well.
