In fact I read his several times when I installed my seats.

I swapped in a set of mint slightly used GT3 seats and put the OEM seats into storage.

He happened to order a second set with red deviated stitching to match his interior.
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.

I know Rockitman made a great DIY already. In fact I read his several times when I installed my seats. Thanks to him! I made this one with some more detailed procedures of some of the steps.
I agree Arnee. The OEMs are kinda expensive... but worth it. It took me two years to find a special deal from a close friend for them. He happened to order a second set with red deviated stitching to match his interior.
actually a GT3 seat upgrade might makes sense if you plan to resell your car. I swapped in a set of mint slightly used GT3 seats and put the OEM seats into storage. Checked on my OEM seats last week and they still look brand new and will make my car more attractive to a buyer. On top of that I can probably get close to what I paid for my GT3 seats ($1700) after two years of weekend only use.
Win-Win.
p.s.
I'd also cover the dash with a beach towel in addtion to the center console.
Very good points! That will surely keep them looking new. Did you apply Lexol on the seat before storage to preserve the hide? and do you keep them inside heavy dark plastic bags with desicants? I'm thinking of doing all that on mine/ they're sitting in my beroom.
