Car Seats (Baby/Toddler)

TrackReady · 05-30-2010, 03:11 PM

Does anyone a car seat in the back of their e92 m3. I am looking to put 2 recaro young sports in the back if they will fit.

Ages are 3 and 1.

Im pretty sure it's been done alot, I know Those are the only seats my kid would be in

They shouldn't be a problem, I have a base in there and use the anchors that are built in at the bottom of the seats. I would just make sure you put a thick padding underneath so the leather doesn't get lines or indented per say. GL

I have this exact model seat but in blue/black in the back of mine. It's for my 2 y.o. The legroom is tight if the front seat is pushed far back but the cabriolet seats are more upright in the back, not sure if that'll change the legroom compared with the coupe. Here are a couple of pics I've got at the moment. You'll just have to test fit one and see. It's a great seat btw.

I have had the Young Sport and Signo for the same aged kids in mine. Worked great, no issues.

I have a rear facing child seat in my car for my 13month old. It's not hard to attach and there's plenty of room for the person riding in the front.

We have one and it fits fine (exact seat).

out of curiousity.. if you put the rear facing child seat in the E92, can someone sit in front of the seat.. i tried to put a rear facing seat in my 997 C2 Coupe... and the results were dismal... couldnt even get the base in to get the seat placed back...

thanks in advance.. thinking of getting the E92 or E93, and wanted to see if it will work with the rear facing seats?

Those look the same, just different names. I have two young sports and a signo. I hope they fit!

Ordered the ProBooster May 24th but they all seem to be on backorder... if anyone has them in stock I'll cancel my other order.

Yes, it fits but not a lot of room (so tall driver and rear facing seat behind driver likely won't work.

Like the other guys said-it fits but the front seat will be tight. My wife can sit in front but she is 5-6. For a tall person it will be uncomfortable riding in the front.
