Child booster seat in a Sparco Evo?
Want to take my 6 yr old daughter for a ride in my 911, or as she calls is "daddy's race car." With the roll bar in the car, rear seats are long since removed. And with Sparco Evo's up front, the Graco TurboBooster seat base doesn't fit into the Evo seat bottom, too wide. And the Britax Marathon won't fit either. Anyone know of a good booster seat base that would work?
In case anyone was going to ask, Illinois law states that if there is no rear seat in a car, or no shoulder harnesses, then a booster seat age child can ride up front if the air bag is disconnected. Obviously the '86 has no airbag (insert mother in law or politician jokes here). I'd really like to take her for one ride before it gets too cold (no heat, no a/c) so would appreciate any thoughts.

Someone here suggested taking the car to Toys R Us or Sears and asking if you could try several different seats in the car.
I plan on doing that next spring....

Less brakes, more gas!

I just threw my 6 yo in the front w/ no booster. I ran the shoulder belt under the wing on the seat (Sparco Pro 2000) and it was at the right level for his shoulder. The clip went through the inside belt hole and he we very secure. The Pro2000 is pretty deep so I had no thoughs of him moving around in the seat. He could not see over the dash

I just had a thick piece of foam rubber cut and works great as a booster seat
