those look right, and the side bracket "should" drop right on... missing the handle to move fore and aft...and on the stock sliders it's a unique handle that pivots pushing the two gold color parts up (or down forget) at the same time

Thanks Van. I think I may have found some sliders at Oklahoma Foreign and DC Auto. I asked for manual sliders for a 996 and they both have them. Time to noodle..

Success! I got some used sliders from Oklahoma Foreign. They were good to deal with but the next guy that placed an order after me got a free purchase. They used my card twice......all is good now.
So I get the sliders and modify the side brackets slightly and the seats fell right into place. The wiring was easy for the seat belt thanks to a good DYI here on RL. Sliders work great. Went for a ride and the seats hold me pretty good. The blacks seats look good with the Metropol interior. Me likey! Sorry for the BB pics.

They are used and ran $120 per seat. Used what I could and discarded the rest. DcAuto and Oklahoma Foreign had tons of these. Really appreciated your offer Van!
