Anyone changes seats in a Boxster?

[BertBert]

So I have a theory...seats make a huge difference to how a car feels.

I loved the "race" seats in my GT3RS. Has anyone put similar in a Boxster (mine is a 2003 3.2S)?

Yes, I couldnt get comfy with the sports seats & put a pair of Cobra Imolas in trimmed to match & with full slider adjustment - they were great, though SWMBO complained I should have got the 'wider' fitting for the passenger side. When I sold the car, I sold the seats through the PH classifieds. PM if you want the details :

Yes I had the race seats put back in the Spyder.

I still thi k the best seats are the 996gt3 buckets though.

Did you comment it was preferable to part exchange her for a narrower fitting instead?

For the above sparcos

It looks like you need some bent brackets to mount to the floor, some sliders, then some vertical brackets to bolt to the seats?

Oh and check the seats aren't too wide to fit the chassis
