If it helps I'm based in TW11 & have a complete set of black rear seats from a 2001 996.2 coupe, which are in very good condition, recently cleaned & treated with leather conditioner.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

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

  • Porsche Club GB: 1 discussions

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 there 2002 996 targa one of the rear seat pad (black leather) has been water damaged - any suggestions on where i can get it re-covered ? the pad is easily removed and light enough to post - the leather is all ripped from shrinkage so cannot be restored thanks

POST 2Original post

It might be a good idea to let members know where in the country you live.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

am i correct that the rear pad is the same for all 996 (incl targa) except for the convertible ?

POST 5Original post

That’s my understanding. There seem to be quite a few secondhand pads available on eBay. Might be more cost effective than repairing yours. If going down the repair route, three options are: - Dave the Trimmer (Reading area) - Linas (DesignLS) - Chobham, Surrey - Southbound (not sure location but I know it’s further afield). sorry about the water damage (water ingress is the curse of the Targa). Have you identified and corrected the root cause so it doesn’t happen again?

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

yes the leak was fixed by precision porsche - keeping an eye on ebay

POST 7Original post

If it helps I'm based in TW11 & have a complete set of black rear seats from a 2001 996.2 coupe, which are in very good condition, recently cleaned & treated with leather conditioner. I'm open to reasonable offers, but would prefer to sell as a set rather than split though. If you're interested then send me a private message & I can share some pics.
