Default Creative storage options for stuff with buckets?

I just started driving a 991.2 instead of the 997.2 and man, the fixed back buckets make it very tough to even put my kid’s backpack in the rear!

Do any of you guys have any tips or tricks for making the rear storage area more usable or am I just SOL?

Thanks!

Have the same issue. I gave up after a few tries. Also want to avoid scratching exposed carbon back.

Not much more you can do than slide one seat all the way forward, one all the way back to widen the gap. At least they move quickly since they are manual!

…Or use the frunk!

I might see about getting a bolt in passenger race seat with smaller head wings because it’s my younger daughter and she’s in a bucket car seat anyway.

Could also consider getting a used regular 991 seat for passenger side.

Also thought about sea sucker top roof clamshell.

I’m missing the functionality of my 997.2 GT3 that I had rear seats in place plus removed passenger seat.

I might get a kids racing seat and put it on a bracket.

I miss the 997's parking brake handle!
