Not P-car related but I'm curious about your Volvo...I had experience with a couple back in the day.

We run it in LeMons and Lucky Dog leagues. Well, we did until we decided to start over. It was the original “Death Cab” of Lemons; a 244, but we’ve since stripped that chassis and started over with a 245 wagon. Should be a solid build, hoping to get it back in the races this season…

Is the wiring for the illuminated sill plates already there on a car without illuminated sills?

No. But you can buy wiring loom for it. It is very easy to install it. One wire into BCM, ground wire and two plugs for the door sills. You will also get 4 new screws for the seat to reinstall

I see that you have the GT2 folding carbon bucket seat. I wasn't aware that that was an option the 981 CS. Where did you get it from? And is the seat fully functional without programming (specifically airbags)?

Ah. I believe they are called the GT2 folding rear seats. Not sure if the GT3 had them as well. These seats were used in the 987 Cayman R and Boxster Spyder as well.
They are available for $11k from Europe but as much as I want them, I can't justify the cost.

They are beautiful seats. You have a perfect spec there. Enjoy!

Thank you very much. Anyway if you find them any cheaper sometime you can use them I would say. The only electronic there is airbag and seat belt control. The move only in one way manually
