The rear seat belt install is an easy job, fitting the seats is a little more difficult and involves some welding IIRC.

I use the Porsche seat for my 4 y/o held in by the seat belt without the seats and it is a very nice fit.
The belt holds it securely and with the front seat (reclining bucket) further forward I am happy that it is a safe set up

Problem is when they get too tall for the child seat, then the factory seats need to go in.

Now you're talkin'. I drove an S yesterday...was surprisingly good with a GT-like exhaust note. This may be the best route.

Personally, this is not a bad idea Moot. The wifey is very safety conscious though and wants the kids in the back.

Ahhh. I'm not the only one. I'm really trying hard not to be selfish and get the wife in on some driving. But, the GT's keep calling my name!
