I bet there is. I have a friend who has a Suburban and they added a 4th row that butts right up to the 3rd row. She does daycare and so put the seat belts in and can now sit 3 more kids in her SUV (they sit backwards).

I'll have to give her a ring and see where she got that done.

Much apprecaited!!!! I was thinking that a back to back arrangment with the third row would would work like Volovo station wagons. How did she lash it down?

Maybe this place will have something you can use. Doesn't show Excursion, but might be worth a call.

I got one from these guys:

I got it in tan vinyl and it looks exactly like the stock seats. Pricey, but really well made. Now my kids love sitting in the "way, way back".

Too bad they don't put headrests on it either. I know most likely little kids will be the ones riding back there, but the lack of headrests for all passengers isn't very intelligent IMHO.

Looks like head rests are an option there ...

By the by, the nice thing about the headrests on the Little Passengers seat is they double as headrests for the third row. When I look back from the driver's seat, you'd swear the third row seats were built in the modern age.

No, have not changed the tire yet. Could go either way. If you've got a stock tire back there, you could probably leave the seat in. Four bolts hold it in and they are easy enough to put in and out.

I have the Little Passenger Seat also. We have used this one for 3 years with absolutely no problems. I have matching upholstery, so the look is factory. I had a Ford salesman mention to me he didn't realize Ford had ever offered the 4th seat option!
We mount ours forward facing. It leaves enough room for the children to walk around the right side to get in and enough leg room between them and the back of the 3rd seat. It has head rests on the 2 outside positions, 3 seat belts, including shoulder belts on the outside positions.
This is actually my second Little Passenger Seat. I also have one in a Toyota 4Runner. They are custom built for each vehicle and very easy to install.

I never thought about putting it in forward facing. I'll try it sometime. I keep it rear facing because my kids like the wiper show and it allows for some storage when the seat is not in use.
