Are the square cuts in the rear carpet normal? If not, what could this be from?

Are there hoops for the child seat attachment if these carpet squares are popped out? Are there the two other lower tethers also in the 996 for child seats?

I can't remember but I think there are metal hoops. No lower tethers, they strap in with the seat belts as I recall.

If anyone has a photo of a child seat in the back seat, maybe I can convince the missus that we don't need an SUV afterall.

Maybe the rear sections for a GT2 or GT3 dont have the slits.

Not very good shots, but these are all I have access to at the moment. It is a tight fit, but my wife, 2 y/o and myself can fit and it's fine for short drives. You can see the gray child's seat behind the passenger seat.





Another partial view:


Two more, without baby seat visible, just 'cause I think she's cute:

Can't argue with that. She's adorable!

I actually found a few photos here in the forum.

Thanks for the ammo. I'm off to sell the point now.
