Nope not single... You can see from my last car I like to add my personal touch to the cars. I bought the seats from another member of this board for $1500 they are in 10/10 condition not a wrinkle they would be mistaken for brand new. They also had an embossed head rest crest. I got lucky! With all of the GT3 seats being installed Sport seats will be popping up for sale often.

My Sig will change one I install... Never before.

Oh and YES I love PORSCHE'S!

Can't wait to see this car change over the next two weeks. And the picture is great, almost made me fall out of the chair.

Great Picture

I really like your picture, you should see if one of the Porsche clubs would use it for a magazine cover.

Good Luck with your car

Sandoval,

I said it before - you are a modding nut case! Congrats on all of the new toys for your car. The only problem is that modding can be like a narcotic. In your case, you are about to OD. Then after it's all on, what next? You'll still need to feed that addiction next year...

Yes yes I know upside down... it would not sit up by itself in the right direction... Thanks for the comments I have passed it along to a few friends...They think I am CRAZY... I won't argue

BTW I love to catalog my installs and progress through pictures I plan on building a site similar to my other site 968S.com So there will be lots of pictures in the future!
