Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

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.

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

POST 1Original post

The 997 GT3 seats are unheated and becoming harder to come by. The 991 GT2 seats have heat and are still available at a few places. I got mine from Carnewal in Belgium. I'm in Canada so shipping was spendy but it is what it is. Used seats were selling for price of new so I decided to take the plunge. For those silly enough to join me, know that the 991 LWB does indeed plug and play, with the caveat that you will need to code the weight sensor and passenger seat belt receiver out in order to prevent the airbag light on the dash. I was able to do with a foxwell 530 in a few minutes. Before shots are with 997 Turbo Sports Seats Plus And the result after... Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

GT2 Seats in Black Leather : 991 version - Carnewal Used ones were selling around 10k usd. This is where I bought mine from, for brand new. I saved a bunch by doing my own customs clearance, so no crazy brokerage fees. Just taxes. Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

Thank much!!

POST 6Original post

So they just bolted right up? No adapter needed?

POST 7Original post

Correct. Disconnect battery . Unbolt seats. Disconnect Harness on each seat (+weight sensor on passenger seat) Drop in new seats Reconnect Harness. No weight sensor on passenger. Reconnect battery . Code passenger seatbelt receptacle and weight sensor to "no" Bam. Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

POST 8Original post

So bad ***. I've had the privege of driving a Boxster Spyder with Carbon buckets and they really are a game changer. The price is a lot to swallot though. Next year I'm going to see if I can get some Recaro Pole positions recovered in sand beige and retrofitted with seat heaters to make a poor man's version.

POST 9Original post

With Recaro Pole you are missing the side impact airbags that the GT2 seats have, To me this is a game changer.

POST 10Original post

Follow up, Changed carpets, center console/shifter and side panels to radio in black to make it balance out a bit better. ✌

POST 11Original post

Those seats are the real deal. Way to go, I gave up looking for them because the cost on Bring your Trailer got to be around 10k. So you have both the safety and a great seat.
