I don't have it but I can't see why not. Dimensions are 28" L x 17" W x 25" H

I used this seat/base in my RS7 when my son was younger. It fits but requires the front seat to be up a fair amount. I could not fit it comfortably behind the driver's seat. Keep in mind that you need more clearance for this vs a toddler seat since the toddler seat is stationary but an infant seat must be maneuvered in and out of the car to attach to the base.

Thanks for the comment. How tall are you?
I’m short and 5’6” so my seat is pretty far up.
Do you have any pics of it inside?

I'm 5'9" and I don't. It is likely doable in your case but it would be a tight fit front to back. Test fit it if you can before purchasing.

YES - Fit just fine in my S7. One issue that you will likely face with ALL REAR FACING infant seats/carriers is 'maneuvering' the kid between the seat and the narrow opening left my the sloping rear roof line. It's much easier if you put your kid into the infant carrier first and then click the carrier into the base.
My 13 month old is in a traditional rear facing car seat now, and the infant carrier was much easier to manage load/unload.

Thanks! Just to clarify, you mean put the baby into the car seat and then together click it into the base that is semi-permanently installed in the car?
And what seat protector do you all use?
I'm learning so much about babies!!

You got it -
Step 1 - Put baby into Carrier
Step 2 - Click carrier into the base (installed via belt or latch system in your back seat.
