Hi all,
I'm considering replacing my comfort, full electric and memory seats with the 997GT2 buckets. Since I use the back seats (my kids do) I can't consider a non folding bucket design.
So, the issue is my local Porsche Centre says "no way, Porsche doesn't let us do that". I can install them myself, but I need someone to sell them to me
Does anybody know of a supplier in Europe? I can get a pair in the US, but freight and import tax may be prohibitive.
I know that they are made by Carbotech in Salzburg, as I have been to the factory. But that probably doesn't help you much.

Might be worth a chat / e-mail to this outfit

They seem to be highly regarded in the US and i've heard of many UK owners also ordering goods from them. It may be possible for them to ship straight to the UK from their source in Germany.
HTH.

No maybe not, but it might be worth giving them a call to see if there are any european distributors. It seems crazy that thez get shipped from Germany to the US, back to Europe again. Unless the ones in the US are not OEM ones.
Yes, I have inquired them previously and they are willing, but as I said, freight and customs duties.... :eh!:
:sad:
And as eazlth said, transatlantic ping pong doesn't make any sense. Previously, I thought they were made in US by Lear (I read someone saying this somewhere) but if they're made in Austria then paying for duties and freight twice is just stupid and expensive.
They are gorgeous though.... :thumb:
Yes, I have seen those, as well as some Recaros that also fold forward. BUT, have the DTXs ever been crash tested in a Porsche.......
Or even the Recaros for that matter. Safety is paramount to me, as well as, I have to admit, the Porsche brand and reassurance
Vivid Racing Uk have them advertised on their web site. You will find them under Porsche Parts on this site.
