There is a set in the Rennlist Marketplace. Search 993 seats and they will pop up.

According to seller, he got what he asked and they looked like they needed nothing except bolting in. If you had to recover a pair, it would be about $1600 to have new leather covers installed by a shop so the question is, are hardback seats worth around $2800 if they need work? The german ones would be $2700 plus the cost of shipping back to U.S. which can't be cheap considering it's $300 FEDEX just from coast to coast ... and they need covers

If you are looking for black, you will see them pop up from time to time. If, like me, you are looking for a nice pair in cashmere (beige) you are in for a long, long wait

I have (heated) black sport seats in my TT. I've never been in another 993 so I guess I don't really understand the big deal about sports seats. Can someone inform me? thx.

VERY RARE about sums it up. They bring more now than they did when new. They are very cool especially if you paint the hardbacks to match the exterior. I have a set in my car and love em. Kind of like rare colors. More desirable. Want to sell yours? JK

The bottom seat side bolsters are hiigher as well as the side bolsters on the seat backs. they hold you more firmly in place than the standard seats.
