I received them in less than a month and found them very nicely packaged and great attention to detail. After being bogged down with work and visiting family I finally got them swapped out for the factory alcantara yesterday and absolutely love them and the look. GT silver is a great 911 color but even with the red belts and stitching it just seemed a little too stodgy. The pascha has fixed that! I think the combo works great and couldn’t be happier
Logistically, how do you get the stitching on the seat without shipping them the seat? Or do you do it somehow?

I don’t have pics, but the back and seat cushions are attached with Velcro—these particular inserts utilize the factory foam cushion. It’s a simple matter of peeling the factory cushions out, swapping out the cover (in my case Pascha for the alcantara) and replacing. Took 15 minutes.

Ok, thanks. I didn’t know that section could be removed so easily via velcro!? Learn something new everyday! 😛

Actually I did take a couple pics of the OEM alcantara seat inserts prior to swapping out the covers. You can see the male Velcro on the back where it affixes to the carbon fiber bucket seat.

Bought some Porsche decals for the doors and installed them. Air bubbles were a b*tch lol but I managed to get them out with some heat and a pin. And, yes, I know the wall still needs painted.

Default Added this Function First Aluminum Shift ****

Added this First First Aluminum **** coupled with the Numeric Shifter give my 911T a whole new feel. Love it and looks pretty good too complementing the Carrera T Yellow trim
