Im going to test drive a 993 this sunday and wanted to know if a standard off the shelf booster seat (with back) will fit in the rear seats?
 
I may be completely wrong on this, but I understood that the rear seats are certified in such a way that booster seats aren't required if your child is over a certain weight (15kg?).
 
You can get certain makes to fit in, but you have to push down hard to seat them correctly in the space. The other issue can be that the "buckle end" of the seat belt is too far forward and hence doesn't secure one side of the seat as good as you would like. They do fit though.

Hi - is this confirmed ? having real trouble finding a seat that will fit and don't want to buy a 2nd hand one (just in case)...

You will have problems and as far as I am aware there are none that officially fit. The Porsche seat for instance (booster and back) actually does fit in the rear but if you read the instructions, Porsche say it should only be fit in the front. So if Porsche don't make one for the rear (and they don't) you're potentially stuck.

Interesting comment about not needing one over 15kg though. I'd also be keen to hear of that is correct.
