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.

11 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

Hi all.. I figured at her 9th bday..the 996 should get something special.. And as we all know ..savanna beige does not look good when worn.. The front seats were not looking good ..and last year I had bought a set of full leather seats for the rear(since the originals were vinyl). The rears were a slightly,less faded shade of "peanut butter"..so they did not match perfectly.. So while at the dealer the other day I asked my mechanic friend who does their leather repair/touch ups..The guy happened to be there that day. We set an appointment for the work. He came to my house and did all the seats, hand brake, cubby top, and fixed a nasty scratch on the steering wheel. It took about 2 1/2 hours with most of the time spent removing seats and taping off.. Though not perfect(car has 35k miles) and to the trained eye, you can tell its been redone...I am very happy with the results..makes the car really look alot newer.. I had read here where some have bought the leatherique" kit for about $200 and done it themselves..I figured I would pay a little more and get it done by a a pro...and it is guaranteed for 1 year... HAPPY BDAY 1999 996!

POST 2Original post

Looks great - and I can attest to the wear on the savanna beige, I am slowly repacing a lot of the interior trim.

POST 3Original post

looks great. I need to find a good guy in the greater NY area, have a tear I need fixed. Out of curiosity, what did you wind up paying?

POST 5Original post

nice!!! Love the back seat, is it padded more than the old cardboard? My kids are getting sore butts!! Ed

POST 6Original post

looks good... nice and fresh. Good for 9 more years.

POST 7Original post

Nice job, looks new again. Not bad for a 9 year old vehicle.

POST 8Original post

Wow. that looks really nice. Unfortunately, this gives me ideas on what I need to do to my interior.

POST 11Original post

What would black seats look like in a savannah beige interior? I have a set of fully electric memory seats out of a TT and a set of black sport seats. I have two cars with beige seats, one savannah the other cashmere and don't like either set of seats, and not necessarily the color. The cashmeres are too soft, the savannah seems to have been used by someone who put all his weight at the very back of the seat bottom, way different than my seating position. I've been thinking about one or both changes for a while. I would of course have to keep the originals for resale at some point.
