    Try this new style booster seat.

    Instead of raising the child with cushions, it lowers the seatbelt to the child's shoulder height. 

    We bought one to use for our current trip here in Orlando. 

    That's ingenious Smiley Thanks, Whoopsy.

    We used this https://www.bubblebum.co/product-category/travel-car-booster-seat/ it also has a strap behind that pulls down the seatbelt to the shoulder of the child. It worked quite well with the 991 back seats.

    Congrats, great choice!

    Drove a 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS over the weekend (Porsche Drive). Tried the regular kids seat but then the twins are very close to the front seat, very claustrophobic for them.. So I used the boosters that we have for travelling. This worked great. Not as safe as full seats, but ok for cruising. We actually got stopped by the police (first time in 15 years in CH) and they checked the kids and complimented how nicely they were strapped in. indecision

    Nice! Smiley

    How did you like the GTS? 

    It was great.  Most amazing was the cornering speed. It had the rear axle steering and your can really feel that.  But with the kids I couldn't really test it, was just nice cruising with a fast corner every now and then. Flüela pass to Pontresina where we stayed at Saratz and back over the Albula pass. Nice mini vacation.

    With kids a coupe is probably better, more space and you can drive the convertible only open with slow speeds anyway otherwise you loose the kids Smiley

    That is what impressed me too. The cornering speed. The road between Gruyères and Gstaad has got great long sweeping turns and a few scary hairpins. All with a slight elevation uphill. Valley slamming bonanza Smiley

    Sounds like a nice mini vacation with the family Smiley

    Correct. The spoiler is deployed more vertical. But only on GTS. Extra super forza fast silver GTS Smiley

    On a more serious note, I was not aware of this either until a few days back when I spotted a GTS on the highway. I guess it is a feature of the SportDesign aerokit.

    Re: 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS

    Due to the front SportDesign bumper of the GTS, which has bit greater downforce, the rear spoiler also goes up more to balance front and back... and if the GTS is silver, it goes even a bit higher because its the fastest color for a GTS Smiley

    Re: 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS

    What kind of downforce are we talking about here? Knicker elastic? Or kg?

    Besides GT Silver GT3 RS would have even more downforce.
