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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My 2001 Boxster seats are falling apart as many are. I'm looking at replacement leather. Has anyone used these Ebay replacements? Ebay Leather Seats

POST 2Original post

You might be better off checking the classifieds, CL and Ebay. When I bought my car it had stains in the seat bottoms from where they got wet. It took about 6 months but I finally found a set of heated seats with the crest in the headrest with less than 30.000 miles on them. Cost $500 for the seat and $200 for shipping. I could have just installed them but I spent another $100 in parts and wired in the seat heaters. I then posted and sold my old seats for $350. One of the best upgrades I have done to the car. $500 for basically new heated seats...
