sorry if it sounded like i went off on you - i got visions of the parents who tell me their kids don't need to get vaccinated because we don't have those diseases anymore or because vaccines cause autism!!!

i haven't thoroughly read the nhtsb thing, but assuming that they didn't take 100 kids betw the ages of 1 and 12 and place them in the front seat of a car traveling over 50mphs involved in a collision to see what type of facial/head and neck trauma they suffered - the suggestion that it is a good idea sounds like CYA.

you must have 986 model - the ones that require the whole locking connector thing, eh? if you have 987 then you just need to turn the airbag off (key device in the 05 models, weight sensor in the 06+) and then any car seat will work.

at any rate, good luck. once you can put your child in the boxster, its a fun experience for him/her.
