I used a step by step guide i found on the 6speedonline forum , it was a bit nerve racking stripping the first seat as you have to take it back to a bare frame.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

13 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

After selling my seal grey 996tt 4 years ago I moved on to a few other car including a R8, in the mean time I built myself a track car to keep me amused . That was until last month when I folded and bought my old car back back. The car was still in mechanically good condition but needed a bit of a cosmetic tidy up, and decided to add a few little mods while I was at it. As I bought it back Wheel and brake refurb Added some carbon Half cage and painted seat backs Gave it a detail My little track toy, so much fun for so little cost Edited by Neil Allan on Thursday 12th June 06:41 Edited by Neil Allan on Thursday 12th June 06:49

The previous owner had bout the rear wing but never got round to fitting it , but expect to pay between £1500/2000 if you can find one second hand. The mirror covers were a £70 ebay bargain the fit and quality is actually really good on them.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just got my steering wheel back from Royal steering wheels, half leather and alacantara with grey stitching and 12 o clock band. I also got extra padding added to give a better feel when driving. A bargin at £130 for the retrim

POST 12Original post

Love the painted seat rears ... was it hard to do?? Def want to do that to mine as its mighty dark inside with black leather - that and the tranmission tunel in silver should lift it a fair bit!

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I used a step by step guide i found on the 6speedonline forum , it was a bit nerve racking stripping the first seat as you have to take it back to a bare frame. I would say I could now strip a seat in about 10 min and build it in 20.
