Baby Zen Yoyo

Now can someone please recommend a good forward facing baby seat for a 997 rear? I have tried a few and have not been satisfied with a secure fit. I have removed the seat cushions and seat backs.

Quinny Zapp Extra also fits. Good stroller but lacks cupholders and such, some of the fittings are a little fiddly.

Guys,
I'm still working on the baby part, and I'm a bit rusty, ya know.....
Thanks for the heads up anyway. May come handy one sunny day. Never know.....

The divorce is progressing quite well, if that matters ?!?!

Harmony seats from Wal-Mart fit quite well in the rear of a 997, are cheap ($50 or less) and highly rated. They fit well because the base is tapered near the rear where the rear seat area curves in our cars. I fold up a towel and lay it in the rear seat area before puttint the car-seat on top of it to catch any spills and make the seats fit more securely. I have a pair in the rear of both my 997.1s. I removed the seat bottoms and backs, not because I needed to, but because I didn't want anything spilled or dropped and squished that might mess up the leather surfaces..

Do these have the anchor strap up top?

They do not. These are boosters not car seats for infants / toddlers so no top tether or harness straps - they use the vehicle seat belt.

Looks like Wal-Mart may not be carrying it any longer since it's not available online, but maybe you can find some that remain in your local store. There's the black and silver I pasted the link to and there's also a black and pink. The important part for fitment is the shape of the base where it tapers toward the back - they offer this same shape of base as just a booster without the back and may also be using it in a newer model with a different name.

Good luck

I found this Cosco No Back Booster at Target for $12.99. Its shape fits perfectly in the seat space (seems like it was made for the 911).

Here they are in a 991:

That thing is gigantic compared to the Pockit I use. This thing will fit in your carry on luggage.
