child safety seat

When I purchased my '83 911 I had the same situation.
My daughter was 5 at the time and all she required was a booster seat.
I went down to Target and found an EVENFLO booster seat for $19.99 then took a look at my back seat. Of course the back seat of a 911 is only big enough for small people and the 2 humps provided as seats do not leave many options. So I took off the upholstery on my plastic booster seat and grabbed a PVC saw and started shaping. That's right, there is enough plastic on the bottom of the booster seat to shape 2" @ 45 degree so that it eventually sits flush in the seat. Special provisions will be needed for the seatbelt. I had to provide an extra notch on the receiving seatbelt clasp side of the seat. Note that the '83 911 only had lap belts in the rear.

Now after saying all this I prefer to put my daughter in the front seat with the shoulder strap. It is a better place for her.
