Wanted: 986 airbag deactivation bar / child car seat

Our son is 3 and I'd like to be able to travel with him in our 2000 Porsche Boxster 986. So we need to deactivate the airbag. From research this appears to be possible with the deactivation bar and a child's car seat.

Does anyone have a bar and the buckle all the entire kit they'd like to sell?

Many thanks

There's no buckle with this one, but it would be easy to fabricate one. I'm glad to send you the dimensions from mine.

Keep in mind that the Porsche seat is held in place by the seatbelt and the seat-bottom bolsters. Have you tried out your child seat in the Boxster yet? You may have to find a different one.

I could certainly ship you the measurements of the buckle, but you'll have to ask the seller about the bar. (I can't imagine it will be much, though.)

There is a fellow in the UK who makes a "clone" device that performs the same function as the Porsche bar: Porsche Airbag de Activator Alternative to Bar and Child Seat Boxster 911 | eBay
This device does not require a buckle, so it will work with any seat as it is.

Keep in mind that your Porsche dealer will have to reprogram the car to recognize the bar or switch gizmo. Best call them and make certain that they can/will do that before investing in it.

I modified a 944 buckle, but someone recently posted that porsche shop uk is selling a buckle for not much more than I ended up paying for the 944 buckle and the beer to borrow a friend and his dremel to shape it. Still have to get the bar, of course, which also requires longer bolts - Pelican sells them.

I have a Porsche child seat WITH deactivation bar which I would like to sell. My granddaughter has grown too large for it.

Please send me a personal message if you're interested. (I doubt that sending it to NL would be worth it, however. )

Send Pm, perhaps the bar itself might be shippable?

silver-s: which model car seat do you have? There are several tiers. I might be in the market for the middle tier "G1" seat like this one:
