I can confirm that the Recaro Profi SPG and (larger) Profi XL fit fine in the GT4. I don't have any picts handy, but the seats work out well in the car. I evaluated several options for mounting the Recaros and ended up using a new Brey Krause bracket which uses the standard OEM sliders for the 981/991 cars.
One thing worth noting is that I could not find any option that provided an aftermarket sliding seat option which was as low as the OEM carbon LWBS. My Recaro setup puts me about 1/2" higher than the LWBS seat height. I like sitting low in the car... almost like that last pict that Katmeho provided in his post above ^^^ - LOL... Also note that no one has found a way to turn off the airbag light.
I'm happy with my current Recaro setup and would even consider selling my LWBS (platinum stitching) if they are still going for $$$$. PM me if interested.

This seat looks like it might be just the ticket for those people using the car on the road and track. Cobra Nogaro. Designed to work with 3 points. The big obvious downside is this doesn't look too compatible with a harness to me.
