I bought a Cosco High Back booster seat at Target for $50, and fits nicely in the back seat of my 69T.
These are suitable for stage 2 (20-40lbs) and stage3 (30-80lbs).

I disagree with the "no kids in the back"...I certainly don't do any spirited driving with my son in the back, but he and my wife enjoy very much going to see friends or to the park on week-ends in the 911.

I will have to try this one. Every seat I have tried for my boy (a bit over 20lbs) has not worked. The problem isn't the size but the fact that the belts are mounted too far forward and it isn't possible to get the seat firmly strapped in. Good lock Donger.

I live in Sacramento and have been to Silver Star. You need to have a good idea of what the value of the part you are looking for when you go in--they seem to throw a number at you and see if it flies. Call Parts Heaven and EASY in Emerville and get numbers from them. Wiedman's Wheels up in Oroville do a really good job with Fuchs. You can usually meet them some where in Sacramento to drop off your wheels, as they work with the BMW and Porsche dealers. They stand behind their work and have been around for a while. The 17's...you pay a price in ride quality for the style points, you may have to fiddle with your suspension and you will probably have to roll your edges so you don't rub your tires. As for your seats, try Award Interiors, they are off Howe Avenue. I had a good experience with them.

I found some Cup Wheels and here is the size:
Fronts: 17x7 1/2 et23 w/215 45 17 tires
Rears: 17x9 et15 w/235 45 17 tires

I assume I will needs spacers, will they fit? What spacers will be needed?

Yo Donger,

"Married?......yes, married to some oily beau hunk"

Seiously I would try www.oklahomaforeign.com, I'm from So Cal and I always ordered used interior parts from them (when needed). They have an awsome selection, freindly staff, and great prices. As a secondary option try www.germanautodismantlers.com, they are in Atlanta, Ga but again service and knowledge of "in stock" parts and prices are right on with both places.

Talk to Gary at Oklahoma Foreign or Dave at German Auto

Merry Christmas
