Hi,
Wanted to share my recent experiences with Garry... (Classic FX). First I wanted to say that the communication between him and I was excellent, especially considering the time difference. He made every effort to ensure I was aware of the costs and various timelines. He was upfront about everything. I chose the Carrera T Sport-Tex material to spruce up my RS’s Alcantara seat inserts...a slight premium in cost, but the end results were worth it (for me). Fit and finished were perfect...the attention to detail is clear. The YouTube video he sent made it very easy to complete the installation...
Thanks Garry!!!! http://classiccarrestorationsurrey.co.uk/
Here are some pics... Cheers!!! JB
Original Alcantara
Wow that is two of us in Charlotte area with Sport tex inserts! I got mine through the other supplier that comes with foam. Would be great to see how the cushions compare.

Actually, I hang my hat on the NC Coast, Emerald Isle. However, if you ever find yourself out this way, drop me a line...
So far, all of my friends agree that replacing the OEM seat inserts allows the other areas covered in Alcantara to standout... I’m very happy with the overall ascetics. JB
Thanks! After now having re-read the thread the contact info is everywhere so appreciate you being nice about your response, too!
Well, it is my thread, after all, or at least I started it over 4 years ago, so it wouldn't be polite or civil for me to flame a newbie for an oversight. I have always used my real name on Rennlist, anyway, from the time it was a mailing list called "Porschephiles," to remind myself that being rude to people in cyberspace is not what I would want to do in meatspace, talking to them face-to-face. It's too easy to be a keyboard hero behind an alias, IMHO.

Anyone by chance know if right and left LWB foams are same/interchangeable?
They are not The pass side has a cut out for the air bag sensor that resides under that seat cushion.
I guess if you are handy you could carefully cut out the foam
good luck

‘yup. My friend lent me his houndstooth inserts from Garry. It’s a total transformation. I plan on buying the Carrera T fabric inserts as well. Just need to see them live.
