Yes, I have them. What are you looking for specifically?

I can take pics tonight.

They look great with the houndstooth! I'm looking to see more detail on the rear seat delete. It looks like there are potential connection points for a harness on the top shelf but I cant tell for sure in any pictures I have seen.

How do you like the seats?

Yea that’s some painful depreciation. I suspect it’s color related as that’s not an easy color to move and they want to take advantage of what’s left of summer to sell it.
I drove that car and almost bought it. It is a decent build and a great price. It even has a full front Xpel.

It was titled for a month or so. I got cold feet on color and ordered a car at another dealer.

I researched the hell out of it. Apparently a local NJ buyer bought it at a great discount from the dealer but and had a massive change of heart on the blue so dumped it.

I am leaning strongly towards the carbon seats too. BTW, what does LWBS stand for?! Check out these YouTube videos:
(he gets in the back at 9:50
)

I drove the black car, there is already a harness installed in it.

Ok thanks! Didn't seem like an official Porsche acronym, so was wondering what it stood for.
Isn't it faster to write "CF seats" ?

3500 km trip with T pushing the mountain roads. Wonderful machine and awesome sound when pushing the rpm over 5000.

have you guys had this? There is some water etc. coming from below the drivers side door, as seen in the pics. Dont know what it is, could be just windshield wipers and brake dust just gets to it, but have you had same with your Ts.

Car looks great!

Yep, that's due to a drain (I see it "spring" into action if I put sponges on the windshield while preparing my wash bucket) that then picks up brake dust, dust, etc as it dries.

Can't get over how good that metallic black T looks. It's simply dialed.

Pictures of rear. Think the attachment points in rear corner is for child seat attachment.

Tried too look under carpet but was too enthusiastic. Did have to put back the little plastic cover on left. Did not see anything under carpet as far as attachments but only lifted up a little.

that is seat in most forward position. Not much room to crawl back, maybe 4 inches and too small for me. Better to go between seats.

Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for. I thought maybe those attachment points on the top shelf may work for a harness but you might be right about it being a child seat latch..... Thanks again for the pictures!!

I can confirm that the attachment points are for the ISOFIX child seats. Due to "same parts policy" they are even in the GT-Porsches (although no rear seat option available). They are not able to withstand heavy loads (they just keep the child seat in place, the seats are secured via the attachments in the rear seats). I discussed this with the OPC because I had the idea to secure the dog via the attachment points in my T with rear seat delete :-) The OPC tech guy advised against it as they would just rip out under heavy load. Though what you find under the carpet are the attachment points for the safety belt locks (near the transmission tunnel) - though needs some surgery to get access to them and while good for securing a dog I doubt they are helpful for attaching a six point harness - a bar or rear-cage would be the right solution to do so.
