I am one of several here who have changed to 987/997 front seats and I've found it the best change I have made, far more comfortable.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Good Day 996 people, I need your help in deciding what to do, if anything, about the seats in my 2000 C2 cab. My interior is largely Savanna Beige with seats to match, but front seats are well worn. I would like to have them recovered and the hardbacks repainted but realistically cannot justify the budget. I have searched/appealed for good condition replacements but seats in beige always seem to be well worn/damaged. I have even had a go at refurbing the driver’s seat bolsters myself but remain unhappy. I am of the opinion that the interior would not look amiss if all the seats were black or dark blue so this maybe an avenue to explore. I also have in mind that 997 front seats would perhaps be an option. So, in a nut shell, what should I do? Would appreciate constructive comments and guidance!

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks, that does seem to be a trend. 991 seats were also suggested to me but I don’t know if they would fit!

POST 4Original post

You will have to modify the wiring but it isn't difficult

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My existing seats only have electric recline. I have been warned not to try to replace them with full electric seats ( say from a 997 ) as wiring is almost impossible to sort out!

POST 6Original post

The 997 sports seats will be a nice upgrade, they are FAR more comfortable and supportive. My car also has full savannah interior and I fitted a pair of black/silver 997 sport seats (heated/elec recline), the wiring is doable. Long term I also plan to get them retrimmed & repainted...but it looks ok as is.
