A set of 993 hardbacks sold on eBay for $6,200 plus $300 shipping. Rudy, was that you?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Porsche-993-...vip=true&rt=nc

So, Rudy's 996 sport seats a very nice "inexpensive" alternative to the 993 hardbacks.

The main difference is the appearence (switches, stitch pattern and hardback design). If you like the way they look they are just as supportive as the 993 hardbacks.

Craig,
Rudys seats are painted up real nice; and you know as well as I that pricing a year ago, is not pricing today.

Add in the fact that you essentially gave me those lovely, yellow stitched hard back sports...I still have sour grapes that you didn't let me buy the Fister III's while I was there.

If it makes any difference, I still have fond thoughts of my trip to Encinitas, picking up your seats, and watching my pal blow his sax at a local jazz club.

BTW Santa, I left you out some extra special milk and cookies this year; did you enjoy them?

Thanks again for the awesome deal, but in retrospect; I did save you the hassle of boxing and shipping them Pretty good of me, eh? ...And if memory serves, didn't I pay you more than your asking price?


Best buy and upgrade to date! I love you, man!

Thanks - any other differences as compared to the 993 Sport seats?
No kit necessary...Bang down the tabs in the front rails of the 996 seats, dremel off the locating pin in the back, and plug the power plugs in the correct terminals based upon the electrics in the sport seats and you're ready to roll! Easy peezy...
