What is wrong with you?

Please take your own advice on being respectful, as well as not posting useless threads. You might as well ask if someone wants to trade their car for your toothbrush.

It's possible, but the last time I saw this swap, $10k also changed hands.
Much cheaper to buy track seats. And they will be much better for track use as well.

And you only need to buy one.

And it’s easy to revert back or upgrade it later.

And it will be lighter than the Porsche LWBS.

Yup. That surprise comes when you don't search the forum for previous occurrences.

Pro tip, just found out there is an "ignore list" you can add people to, and their posts will be hidden. Just added OP and the 1# sale's friend to the list and the world becomes a better place.

roflol. Posts on a public forum and complains that the public is not catering to his needs after he makes a ridiculous request. Buddy, you were counting on "us people" being stupid.

I am very sorry, let’s try this again, if you have LWBS and interested in some type of trade for 18 way seats, pm me. If you have NOTHING to offer, can’t help me, please don’t use your keyboard warrior skills and hijack my post, instead please simply move on, it’s really not that difficult, really, try it. Don’t post useless crap that doesn’t solve my problem. It’s like some people here have nothing better to do, either help out or just move on, please.

If there’s an ignore function for a thread I’d love to know where that is. Sick of seeing this on the new post list.

Oof, I'm betting it would be difficult to find someone who has LWBs and asking them to yank it out and install 18 ways back in. What's wrong with getting true Recaro track seats and installing it? On the track, they would be far superior and not to mention racy compared to the LWBs.

On top of that they would be dealing with having a car that no longer matches OEM build spec and will be a pariah for resell, diminished value. But I guess, based on his last post, that I'm not contributing to his perceived entitlement.

After buying one off the lot with 18 way sofa seats I put in an order for another one for my spouse and asked about adding LWBS to switch out with my 18waysofas and was told that idea would be problematic because the pre-wiring would be missing for the 18 ways. That might be where the extra cash would come in handy.
