Default GT3 seats in a 951?

Has anyone put 996 GT3 seats into their 951? If so, what challenges did you encounter with the install and how is ingress/egress?

I would advice to use the "Search" function on this forum as this has been done many times before..

Well I did before I posted and I couldn't find anything substantial. So, do you have something substantial to add to the discussion about GT3 seats in a 951?

I had them in mine for a while, used recaro sliders, changing seats is always less than completely straightforward, but once in they are fine.

I'd have thought Recaro Pole Position seats similar to those fitted in the 968 CS would be a straight forward swap.

I have personally two pairs in 944 s. I can't comment on how they were installed, but they do look great.

Mine has them with BK brackets. Fairly straight forward.
