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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm changing out my Pole Positions for GT3's and while I have both, thought a side by side comparison was in order. The GT3 has 996 side mount brackets while the Pole has Speedware side mounts and Recaro sliders. Both seats weigh about the same - GT3 at 19 lbs, Pole at 18. With brackets and sliders, they are both 29 lbs. These weights were taken on a bathroom scale so accuracy is +/-. I took width measurements at the side seat belt ports and at the forward bracket mount point. Both models are exactly the same dimensions. There are slight differences in the seat pan and the back contours. One significant find with the 1" difference in the spread of the side bracket mount holes. This is shown in the pictures.

Mark This is probably a silly question, but why are you changing the seats if they are so similar?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Not at all. GT3's are all leather, Poles a Alcantra/vinyl.

Poles do come in full leather ... But doubt you regret switching to the GT3s...

Yes, Poles and GT3's are available in different covers. I meant that my set are leather.
