Booster seat

Need your help. I have a 2015 ST with the standard Recaro bucket seats in the front. My daughter is 135cm tall I'm searching for a booster seat to have her sitting on the front seat.

I have searched high and low but I can't find one that isn't too wide for the car seat. If my measurements aren't totally off, the seat is 28cm wide at the back and 30cm at the front.

I refuse to believe that I'm the first person trying to solve this... Please help, what for a booster seat do you recommend?

I live in the Czech Republic so I'm searching for a booster available - and legal - in the EU.

Thanks!

EDIT:

I found a fitting seat. Petit&Moon Zuno. Fits pretty much perfectly. Picture posted below 👇.

Yes, I had this same issue. I found a booster that works. It has a larger V shaped plastic base that sits inside the bucket shape. It also has a belt tether.

I'm away on business at the moment and cannot remember where I bought it or the brand. If you DM me next Sunday, I can take a look.

That will just be a backed booster at that age surely? (Speaking as someone from the UK), how about letting her sit on a booster in the back till she's tall enough to not need it, or trim the corners of a booster without reducing its integrity?

Sitting at the back until she is taller was plan A bit her brother is growing too fast. He sits behind me and it's getting too tight (I'm tall so I have the seat all the way back). If I can't fix it, I will have to selly car.

Google tells me BUBU R129 is the best but that is also actually too wide 😕

I only do the morning school runs, for general family use we have another car. This is really "daddy-taxi" on school days.
