I didn't even know Recaro made
child seats until recently since our parking lot accident (lady backed into the side while wife driving in middle of lane looking for a spot). I had a Cosco Alpha Omega elite before this. It was okay but the buckles kept twisting around the harness straps. The new seat is soooo much better, not only in safety features but also install. As you already know, since our cars don't have LATCH, I had to use the car's shoulder seat belt. This seat allows you to wrap the shoulder belt over the seat rather than route it with the lap belt, resulting in a far better fit. The shoulder belt hides behind the front cushion. Very well constructed and designed. The only thing is, I couldn't find this seat anywhere in the local stores so I bought it online, sight unseen other than pictures. This seat would've been a perfect match for an S4 with the blue alcantera sport package seats...

you can get the LATCH parts (~$25) from any Audi dealer. AoA had mine covered with labor.
but I still need to get it done.
or just pick up the parts and do it myself.
PNs that I was given:
8L0 019 233 ($6.03) = some funnel that I've read you don't need
ZAW 269 004 ($11.25) = left LATCH kit
ZAW 269 005 ($8.10) = right LATCH kit
I have no idea why they'd be priced differently.

Speakers?
My son already has a better seat than I do. Having speakers would just rub it in. But seriously, my son is too small for a pure booster right now...
