So i'm annoyed, but I left my car outside in rain for a few days and I think due to the window connection to the rubber water got in. I never checked my seat for days. Apparently a bunch of water got in and ruined my seat. You can tell from the water lines that it was a lot and eventually froze and further ruined my leather. I tried cleaning it with Zaino treatment... didn't really do anything.

Anyone know how this could possibly be repaired or where to get a new rear seat cushion?

Those rear seats are held down with velcro. Pull up gently careful not to pull off the piece attached to the carpet. It's easier to diagnose a repair outside the car.

You can probably find replacements in the marketplace. People will often do a rear seat delete and/or install a roll cage.

wow that's amazing! Just saw the review, wonder if it will repair the water damage. Might be worth a try.

I'd consider taking the seat by a local shoe repair shop and see if they could fix it up for you. They probably would tel you whether or not is is fixable and if so, would probably have a modest price for it. I wouldn't mention it is from a Porsche if possible.

I'll def remove the seats and see where I can take it for repair, love that it's easy to remove!
