Somewhat related - I had wheels stuck in customs shipped through fedex. Had to fill out some form and FedEx was super helpful and it got released the next day or so.

I have a few sets of 997 buckets that I'll sell. Planes have taken over, so not doing much car stuff anymore. Have both with and withoutwithouts. Not sure what market is, but have sold some seats recently to a forum member as to my feedback. Also have about 6x race seats and p1300s if anyone wants to make an offer!

Mine sat in Tennessee for 2 months at Fed Ex. No one could find them, and after Gert got managers involved, they finally appeared out of nowhere one day at my doorstep. No one at Fed Ex could give us an answer as to why they mysteriously went missing and then mysteriously got found.
luckily they arrived in good shape and will be installed soon, along with a harness bar.

Yeah I had to fill out the form for identification but after that Fedex went silent for a few days, finally got notification it was released today.

OK got the ROW buckets seats installed and disabled the airbag warning thanks to all the info in here. One more question, my shop anchored the seatbelt to the floor, I think that was original position w/ the sport seats. On my 991 RS the belt is anchored to the bucket seat rail. I've seen pictures of it done both ways on the GT2 buckets. Does it matter, is there a "correct" way?

From factory, I believe it should be attached on the bucket seat itself, not to the car. With sport seats, it would have been attached to the car because there isn't a way to anchor it to the seat.

Does anyone know if the CGT/CS buckets and GT2 buckets use the same seatbelt hardware (as above in the PET diagram)?

Click for GT3 PET
Seat Code Key:
384/385 = CGT Buckets
388/389 = GT2 Driver/Pass
375/376 = Sport Seat Driver/Pass
Also take a look at the Seat-belt receptacles item 13 (page 297). There are two variants of the seat-belt buckles for a total of 4 part numbers (driver/passenger for each seat style). The main difference between them is the length to account for the deltas in the seat height. If memory serves, the Club Sport Buckets/CGT seats use the GT2 seats receptacles.

Just got my 991 folding buckets in the car. Install was a breeze but I'm having some other issues...
I disabled the passenger thorax airbag but still having an airbag fault, along with TC failure, PASM failure, and PCM fault. Any ideas?
I disconnected the battery before unplugging the factory seats. Was that a mistake?

False alarm. Everything cleared as soon as I drove the car. I’ll try coding the airbag again.
