Hi all. I have recently purchased a new RODI, but have nowhere to easily install it in my tiny apartment. All of my faucets have fixtures that do not allow for the RODI to be installed, as they do not have a method to screw the RODI in. What would be the best path to installing the RODI while still having my faucet connected to the pipe that feeds it? I'm pretty uneducated with plumbing.

Can you tee off the waterline below? They sell T's at Home Depot & Lowe's the last time I checked. I was about to put mine under the sink then realize "what am I going to do with power for my booster pump?" So, now it's in the laundry room, T'd off the waterline there.
Get yourself an Rodi under sink adapter.
Yep. Here is mine I can shut off the sink and still have RO water or shut off the RO and still have the sink 
When you leave the apartment, you can remove everything so as not to cause issues with your deposit. The only other option I can think of would be cut and glue/solder in another fitting and that's much more permanent.
Right, I know cutting and adding a new fitting is an option, but management would not be happy at all about that.
I am thinking that the adapter mentioned above is my only option. I am thinking about ordering this adapter https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/mur-lok-ez-angle-stop-adapter.html
LOL, ignore the exterminator plug, we had ants and thats still sitting under the sink 
I used a piece of tubing with a barbed male hose fitting with some clamps to make an adapter that fits any gooseneck style faucet. I keep mine hooked up to the shower in our spare bathroom.
The issue with the BRS adapter is that sometimes they strip fairly easily and then whoops
.... I used this 
on Amazon and you can turn it off too.Attachments
We got a brass Y shaped garden hose splitter at Home Depot and tapped off the cold water line from the washing machine. Each direction of the splitter has its own on/off ball valve and it's all completely removable later.

By simply attaching the 2-Way Metal Hose Connector to a standard outdoor faucet, you can use 2 hoses from the same source. Each hose can be independently controlled using the built-in valves. For outdoor

I just set mine on the counter next to the sink when it's time to make water. Not ideal, but it works for me.
Thanks for the warning. I'm going to order this one now.The issue with the BRS adapter is that sometimes they strip fairly easily and then whoops
