Default Value of '10 GT3 seats?

Friend of a friend who removed them for God-knows-what was asking what he could sell them for. I have NO idea where these fit in the overall scheme of things, not do I know about cross-applications into other models.

Any help appreciated!

I've asked. I don't speak water-cooled Porsche. Unless we go into the wayback machine when 944/928 were new. (And, gasp, 924 were new-ish.)

Have NO idea what the guy replaced the seats with. Friend is actually a World Challenge entrant, and hasn't owned a Porsche since a 993 C4S was a new car; it's his friend he's helping. For all I know he could see this post!

These are the standard sport seats. They are the same as the $760 optional sport seats on a regular Carrera, except they have Alcantera centers. They are only about $1500 a pair on the used market. These are fine for the street, but no harness pass throughs for the track. A lot of people swap these seats out.

These are the Adaptive Sport Seats. Basically a power version of the regular sport seats that is heavier and has additional adjustments such as power lumbar and side bolsters. These go for $2000-2500 on the used market. Usually people pull these because they buy a car from inventory that has them in it and they need a more track oriented seat.

These are the sport buckets. These are the best seats you can get for these cars. If he pulled these, I would have no idea why as they are great for both the street and track. About the lowest price you can buy these new is $6500 a pair. On they used market, they go $4500+.

I'd be interested in the seats, if they're still available.
