Default Selling GT3 seats

Well, after spending the better part of a grand getting them up to speed (new BK brackets, new Recaro sliders, Arena Red backs), I am selling them. I believe the leather color is Stone Grey and they are pictured in a Classic Grey interior. I have some back problems and they are just not working out. They really look great and I appreciate all the feed back on the color (as opposed to CF).

I am asking $2250.00 plus shipping. I will also consider a trade for a pair of hard back sport seats. These are a plug and play swap. No drilling or measuring for you.

PM me if interested.

I can't say enough about the seats, yours look fabulous. I have a pair in my Boxster (black with red stitching) and love them. Even used daily, they feel good. Sorry to hear about your back. Great seats for anyone looking for an upgrade.

Thats something (about your back) When mine hurts, I drive the car and my back gets better. I think its from squeezing my hips in line with my shoulders, must line the spine up and put the curve back in the lower region. I LOVE my seats!
I notice from your pics that mine (driver's seat) is raked much further back (butt down lower, legs high) than yours which may be helping me.

You guys are too nice. They do look great, don't they? I wish it was working better for me.

Chris, what brackets are you using? There is no further rake adjustment in the BK's.

I modified my 996 factory brackets to accommodate my 6-3 torso with a helmet. Also (and not that I care for this part) I did away with the slider on my side and fab'd solid rails and bolted the seat brackets to the rails with rake blocks right to the floor.
