Post Speed yellow seat belts...

12:20 GMT. While the Vikens, EJ's, FF's, DJ's, Ray's, etc. are peacefully slumbering, and I am here impatiently waiting for action, thought I'd give the guys with speed yellow 993's something to think about: Just ordered speed yellow seat belts. My repainted car will be ready in 2 weeks and will have them...

(They are an RS option...)

Scott Watkins should upload a picture of his yellow 996 w. black interior, yellow seat belts, yellow stiching, and yellow seatbacks on the sport seats to tide you over until yours is ready!

These colored seat belts are available for the front and rear seats.

Gert,
Are you sure that they are available for the rear seats as well?

Well, he sells them so he must know what he's talking about.

<a href="http://users.skynet.be/fa032321/cpx_p93050.htm" target="_blank">Colored seat belts for P93 Cars</a>

These colored seat belts were also optional on other 993 cars and not just the RS.

Porsche dealers do not always know everything.

I'm thinking about putting some red belts in my recently purchased Guards Red / Black 993. However, I have never seen them in real life and am having a hard time imagining how they would look. Does anyone have this combination and would be able to download any photos? Thanks!

From the SY pesrpective I think they look totally hot. I would do it for sure if I were you RS. I have seen a few here just as Robert describes it with deviating stiching etc... and it looks great.

Is your interior going to be black?
