    measured one yesterday it is 27 inches tall from floor to opening , so no it will not fit , you need 31 inches to clear with head folded

    can't be done , you need 31 inches for clearance , if you plan on leaving the head on

    Quoted from tp:

    Was thinking about picking up a kia seltos. Cargo opening only about 30 inches tall.

    i think it will be too tight , really need about 31 inches at 18 inches left and right of dead center

    Quoted from pinballjj:

    i have fit

    You can get that inch by unbolting the 2 backbox hinge bolts from the cabinet and sliding the backbox further down towards the coindoor

    is the head cable long enough to do this ?

    there is so much empty space in a pin , why don't them make them 2 inches shorter when folded , would think at 26-27 inches folded , they would fit in almost any SUV

    #2111 1 year ago

    the cab can be cut down 2 inches and add it to the legs

    Quoted from Jay_Killjoy:

    Is there a list of current model hybrids or full electric vehicles that fit pins? Looking to buy a new SUV soon but want to make sure I can move a game with it.

    all tesla's won't fit a folded stern , only 28.0 inches of opening , need about 30 in min

    Quoted from northvibe:

    I have in a 2020 (same). It is a tad tight w/ the headlinder but slides in. only issue is pulling it out and getting it the 1/2" up to get over the lip.

    yeah that lip is a bitch , never understand why they designed it that way

    Stern Jurassic Park does NOT fit in a 2020 BMW x3
    (Creature from the Black Lagoon DOES fit, as previously reported)

    Quoted from JustLikeMe:

    Can anyone confirm if a 2018 or 2019 BMW X3 will fit a pin (B/W, modern Stern, JJP, Spooky etc) without having to remove the backbox?

    i have a 2015 X3 , and they fit in my car , so don't know if the same

    i believe you can , it is just that the lip of the tail gate opening is raised , so the game has to be lift up to get it out , a bit of a pain and hard on the fingers

    #2405 7 months ago

    it is about 30 inches , would think you need about 31 inches

    #2459 4 months ago

    the measurement must also be taken 15 inches from the center of the opening , because a game head is 30 inches wide , so 15 inches each side of center , then you measure the distance down , so any curved top entrance your out of luck

    for modern stern 30 in is fine

    #2476 3 months ago

    you must measure not in the middle but 15 inches off the dead center to the right or left , there is were you need about 30 in , remember the head is about 30 in wide folded

    32 in is not needed you can get away with 31 in
