I've been just rolling it up and locking it behind the seat. But this is a great idea too.

Do the curves of the seat or seatbelts make indentations in the window when left like that for a couple days or in the heat?

Nope! I had it in the NC heat like that all day...i saw a slight bend from shape of the seat but went away as soon as i put it back in the top for an hour in the sun. Got a fleece throw blanket to fold around it too now for extra coverage works great!

I thought you were going to lay it like that, but between the seat backs and the cab. That way it works the same but you retain use of the seat. But hey, if it's just two of you....

somebody needs to make a semi-rigid storage bag so I can just lay it in the bed.

I think those seat latches would be a problem if stored behind the seat.
Yeah the problem with the soft windows is that they scratch VERY easily. You can't even clean them with anything other than microfiber cloths. Look at them the wrong way and they get scratched.

I was wondering if it would fit under the back seat on top of the storage boxes there, it may stick forward a bit and obviously willl need to be wrapped in something.

Exactly! I highly recommend folding a small fleece around it before you close it in there....got one on amazon for 10 bucks

I store mine behind the seat, upside down, and gently fold the tabs down and it fits fine. I have a fleece blanket I put over the window so it does not rub.

Mine fit under the rear seats, and I have cables, tie downs, etc in there as well.
