I suppose people have varying degrees of OCD. I am the guy that keeps both seats at the same distance with the same recline.

These brackets tilt the seat back a bit so not so upright - made a big difference. However, I'd really like to come up with an adjustable tilt of some sort . ..
If you have a roll bar it will interfere with seat travel if you are not a short driver. I think the seat angle is just right but everybody has their thing...

Installed these rear axle cooling ducts yesterday. Only took about 8-10 minutes and certainly can see the difference. 1st photo is with the old on the left and the upgrade on the right. When I get my 3RS soon I'll put it up on the lift to see how good of a job I did on the install. LOL

Yes, it's easy. Need Torx T25 and T30. Need T30 to tuck under engine cover/diffuser.

for the people that installed the LWB reclining mounts, does it require you to remove the entire seat to install?

no, you just remove the front two bolts, then insert the bracket. Word of advice, the bolts have loctite or something so you must use the exact wrench specified in the instructions.

Re recline brackets, they are not as necessary in 992 as they were in the 991. Had them in my 991 and they were an absolute must. Given the positioning of the buckets in the 992, however, the tilt effectively increases as you lower the seat. If you are like me and drop your buckets to the floor, very good chance you will not need/want the brackets.

I strontly disagree on this point - I'm 6'3" tall, so drive with mine all the way down, and still WAY too upright for me - even with the brackets, I would like more tilt. Pretty much everyone that's ridden in my GT3T commented on how upright the LWCBs are. While it's greatly improved with the brackets, an adjustable mod with more range would definitely be the ticket!
