Default WANTED: Booster seat for rear of 993 Cab

I am willing to put the top up if needed, but the child booster seat really has to be narrow to face front in the 993 Cab. Willing to buy used or new. Need advice and hopefully somone has one I can buy near Arlington, VA, 22207.
Welcome tips and leads!

No great answer. There are several threads. Booster, or car seat? How old, size of kid, etc?

Kids are at least 36" tall, and at least 40 lbs, and age is fine. Say 4 or so. Booster in my Audi wokrs fine. Problem as you know is the narrow rear seat on the 993 cab. I could find no solution. Do you have any??

Goal is to have just the Booster "horizontal" platform wihtout the vertical back which gets in the way of the wind screen. May not be a simple booster which does this and still fits into the narrow 993 cab rear seat itself. Am I right? If so, have to remove wind screen or put up the top. Comments?

I have a First Years Compass B540---son will be 6 in November--works great for a coupe. The B570 is the latest model out there. They have adjustable backs to grow with your kid.

Still does not address cab issues for certain. Seems high backnwill get in way of wind screen system and/or require top to be up. Am I stuck with this problem for cabs??

You can get a Harmony booster seat from wal-mart for like $13 bucks and it fits. Not sure if your looking for a simple one like this, but it's small so fits in the small back seat. Took a picture of the one I have in my 95 cab, but can't figure out how to upload on here.

Ok resent it. I was thinking your email had an extra "W" when I sent it the first time, but tried it anyways.
