Cost of Swapping Seats?
 
What is the rough cost of swapping 18 ways in for LWBs? I have every intention of ordering the LWBs (or equivalent) in the .2 RS, I'm just not certain they're the best choice for a car that will be primarily used on the street with my wife in tow at times. I know with the current RS, adding the LWBs after purchase is an expensive proposition. Also, if I ever sell the car I assume the LWBs would be more desirable on the build sheet.

8-10 grand. The 18 way wiring harness is an issue IIRC so you almost want 18w from factory and then order the LWB.

Where can I find these for 8-10k?

Well, you cannot order the stock NA LWBs, unless something has changed recently. But you can order the Euro GT2 seats from places like Suncoast.

FWIW, you also cannot just order the 18-way ASS.

If you buy it from a Porsche dealer it's around 15k (incl. cost of assembly).

True. It's amazing that these seats have to be put together from separate parts and cannot be ordered as one.

Alternatively you could try and source the basic manual seats from someone who's upgrading.

I've looked into it and either way it's tough. If you need buckets for track, get the sofas then throw in your favorite race bucket.
