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

I'm looking at cracked seat leather and pricing new covers... I've also been checking out used seats delivered with leather in "nice" shape. I'm assuming... "assume, that's ass out of you and me" that a universal bracket could go on my 2000 - 986 and newer 2011 seats could bolt on. Something tells me I'm in the dark. That's why I'm asking. Woz

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

'03 Black seats installed into my '00 Boxster S. Removed the center back section of the old Savannah color and installed it into the black "new" seat...went in... easy. Fold down the seat and from the back unclip the center back section from the bottom of the seat. Push this through to the front. The center back is held by 3 clips at the top. Push up and with your hand behind the center section get one of the clips to release off the back frame of the seat. The other two will follow. I might ... if brave enough... up grade the backing of my old center section. It looks like it would be easy to stretch the leather over the center back frame and push the "skin" back onto the frame clips. My '00 seats were tired. Dried up and cracking. Recent eBay look had center sections available $39 to $55 each. '97 - '04
