It has been a little over a year now since we released the seat mounting kit. Over the past months the mounting system has proved itself very convenient for many people looking to install aftermarket seats.

Here is a recent example of a more creative installation. This customer leather-wrapped a set of Sparco seats and mounted them to the chassis with the GMG seat mounting kits. Add in the GMG RSR Roll Cage, Schroth Harnesses, and CocoMats, and you have a a very nicely-appointed cockpit.

This is exactly what I need for the 2012 GTS with sand beige full leather interior I'm preparing for road/track use. Will your mounting hardware allow me use the large size Sparco Ergo seat? I'm thinking of selling the Perlon GT2 seats coming out of my 09 C2S if I can find a way to fit the large Ergos. Really like to have halos while on track.
Thank you,
Mike

Hi Mike, I sent you a PM.

Good point, you can find out more information by clicking here.

Got it. I ordered Ergo mediums and will look for someone locally to do the leather. I may be contacting you about the GMG mounts if the standard Sparco/BK pieces don't fit properly. Thank you!

That set up looks great. I wish I had seen this earlier! I have beige interior and plan to do the same as well paint the seat backs in silver to match other interior silver.

When installing aftermarket seats like this will there always be an airbag light because the airbags in the OEM seats are removed?

I have same intentions to replace factory seats with thorax airbag with more aggressive seats. I have been asking numerous shops and dealerships about the dash light. I have pulled seats in past when I installed my roll bar. According to car manual, the entire air bag system becomes disabled which was confirmed by 2 dealerships in Houston area. Of those two, one says they can "likely" program out the seat airbag while the other says they can not.


It seems insane the numerous seat choices from Porsche if the seat bag can not be programmed. Regardless, I have not pulled the trigger on new seats yet: must insure the remainder of air bag system is still functioning for occasional street use, otherwise it forces you to buy expensive GT2 style seat with airbag. It sucks that nobody seems to offer a concrete answer to this.

Yes you can decommission the individual bags. In my car, I turned off the steering wheels airbag since I replaced my wheel with a cup wheel that doesn't have an air bag. My passenger dash and both seat bags are still functional.

Dealers don't like to do this because of the liability.

I am curious, is your car still used on street. Does normal street insurer still offer coverage when factory air bags have been removed or disabled, especially the steering wheel?

The GMG seat base mounting kit could be installed in a 997 with the Sparco SPX?

Call your insurance.
