Did your seats arrive and do they fit as expected?

Yes, they arrived and fit very well with the 997 seat bottoms removed. I have not tested them with the booster seat cushion expanded for larger kids, they might be a squeeze once expanded. Overall I am happy with them and would recommend them. The Britax Parkway also fits well.

Default is the the best for a coupe?

is this a Recaro baby seat? Son is nearing 2 years old and want a great seat that fits well and can grow with him... he is a spirited kid (lots of energy) and the porsche model seat foam bad in his space would set him off so lloking for other options.,.. thanks

I have the Britax Parkway and am only partially satisified. It fits okay, my daughter has enough room to be safe, but she does sit up right a little more than I would like. It wouldn't be a good seat for her on long trips, as she would be uncomfortable, but it serves its purpose on daily runs to school and back.

Has anyone removed the back seat rest to give you more room? How involved is that process, is it just a few screws, or is there more to it? I haven't looked honestly, but may consider it based on the feedback received.

Yes. It is only 3 torx screws, maybe a 5 minute job if you take your time and have your daughter help.

Default Recaro seat

Seat looks great, assume this fits well in the back of coupe 997? Anyone else have this seat that can comment? Thanks

We have this seat for my daughter (now 3yrs old). It did fit fine in our Cayenne S (traded), fits fine in our S6 and GTi, but not in the 997S. The base of this Recaro seat is too wide, so it does not fit well in the rear of the 997, with or without the seat bottom cushion installed.
