Gt3 seats / Gen2 steering wheel upgrade

After a few months, I had the seat bases and backs covered in "Real" Grey Alcantara.

Also the Gear Gaiter, centre glove box cover. All matches the steering wheel...

Same colour as OEM Porsche....

 
Looks great.

How do you get on with putting suitcases etc in the back? Do they squeeze through when fully forward?

Hi
Don't use the rear seats!, have a couple of other cars to use.

Not a daily driver, keep it indoors for nice sunny days
:D

Thank you...
 
I like the seats. I think I'd just pull out the rear seat bases and belts as well. And then likely add a cage and harnesses. But then I'd be getting carried away...

I agree, that's why I stopped!...

Thank you, they are really comfortable due to adding more foam in the base and rears.

Mine is very much a sunny day car, but it does road trips so need to pack it!

Is the Porsche alcantara black or grey?

It is a nice dark grey, really spot on to the OEM steering wheel....

Can you supply more details? What was done where did you get the kit from please?

Hi
See link below, fitted these to the Airbag plug. No warning light issues...

Thanks for the link, do they come with installation instructions?

Pull the car side two wire plug out of the seat harness plug. I wrapped the wires of the resistors onto Taylor's pins. Wrap with cloth tape to keep in place.
Just push into the two hols in the plug any way round and fix with cable ties as the photo on eBay.
