Buckets! No buckets and rear seats in any Porsche

What a travesty.

horrendous idea with carbon buckets. I could see this being useful with standard folding seats. The carbon buckets provide almost no room even when pushed all the way forward. I had a difficult time simply putting a backpack in the back space during ED with my ST and carbon buckets, no way a human could crawl thru that space.

It would be awesome if you could put the 997 folding carbon bucket seats in the ST.

I have a feeling that it can be done w/o a light but admittedly this is total speculation on my part. My logic is that the 992 version buckets have been fitted into 991s with no problem. And there is a 991 version of the GT2 folding bucket that works no problem. That said, it does not look period correct at all (and I say that as someone who has GT2 buckets in his 981).

Pretty straightforward to add the folding buckets - just need to add the 992 PODs detection pad and sensor module, appropriate wiring, and change out the seat belt receivers. Not sure about the seat position sensor on the 997 folding buckets - you might have to change that as well, but totally doable . . .

No folding buckets for the 992. What about the thorax airbag and belt position?

My dealer's 6/7/24 SVMS shows 9/11.
TYD shows 9/17.
Cosmos, What's the significance of your date question?
