No, I don't have any pics handy. I found these that I dug up on my work computer, but they are the only ones I have.
The first proves that yes, you can have it installed in a 997.
The second is an old pic when I had been given a 996 C2 cab to take home overnight where I had my son installed in the back. The 997 & 996 rear's seem identical, but there is more passenger wheel well in the 997 so the front person is better off in the 997.
I don't have any of the seat installed, nor do I have any of the towels. My kids are in boosters now (Britax Starriser Comfy's without the backs) so I don't use that seat anymore.
If you don't have luck tracking it down, then keep bugging me and I'll try to motivate myself to install the old seat and take pics showing you how it works.

Ron much thanks for the pictures they're really quite helpful.
I'm debating if I should consider going straight to booster my daughter is around 35 lbs. Five point convertible seats should be safer but the booster is far more mobile. I hear Sunshine Kids also make a very narrow convertible seat, around 16.5 inches wide.
Looking at your boy's smile I somtimes wish I had a convertible too!

Booster Babyseat for back of 997TT: Britax Parkway works
Booster seat seems to work, this is the latest Britax model with full side protection. Colour matches the interior too.

I spoke to Britax about this and they said their seats are designed to be dug into a seat (which is why you need to physically get into them when buckling and tightening). This is why they don't recommend you put anything like towels or vinyl "seat protectors" between your seats, or put it directly onto the carpet like in the case of in a 911.
In addition, the pic shown was when my son was 3 - he's now 7 so he's in a backless booster now.
