996 GT3 adjustable bucket seat mounts

[tob_today]

I've got 996.2 GT3 with factory buckets. I am looking for adjustable seat mount solution to lower the buckets slightly and be able to adjust the seat angle.

I tried searching forum but nothing obvious popped up. Google search gives many potentials but it's not clear which are best.

Ideally looking for high-quality, simple bolt-in replacements that don't look out of place.

Any recommendations please?

I wa struggling to sort this a year or so back. A quick google returns these

May give you an inch. I ended up removing the cushion for track days where it mattered for me.

D911 have some that give way more adjustment than those linked I believe? Maybe not a recognised brand though.

Thanks, seems those Brey-Krause mounts could be good option.

Just to confirm for other interested people, the Brey-Krause mounts did not work for me. They are fundamentally different shape. I removed the seat, fitted the new mounts, however it wouldn't fit back in the car due to the seat belt receptor between seat and transmission tunnel. Even if they did fit back into car, the rear seat mounting point is further back & lower than front, so the seat would likely recline too much for me personally.

So there doesn't seem to be an alternative to OEM mounts if retaining the rear/forward sliding mechanism which is the main reason the seat cannot go any lower.

I put the GT3 reps in from D911, they sold me non-OEM mounts to do the job. Might offer up some level of adjustment or seat height change? Can't say as am not accustomed to the OEM parts.

Definitely wish mine had more adjustment tilt wise.

Thanks, these look very similar to the Brey-Krause mounts. Think I'll stick with standard for now as no obvious alternatives.

Fair play, I would have my back a touch more reclined if I could. And I would like them a touch lower in the car.
