Default Black Porsche 993 Seats - $500 or trade

The original black stock seats that were in this car are for sale as the car now has blue sportback seats as you can see here.





The seats are lovingly wrapped up in plastic and sitting down in Katy Texas. Great condition I am told but you can also ask fellow Rennlist member Opo as he was the owner of this car prior to me buying it. I have not seen the seats myself but hopefully you can see that I and Mr. Opo (and Mr. Sullivan before that) take serious car of our cars - follow this link to get a sense and you can imagine the stock seats we're talking about that were in this car before are going to be in pretty good shape.

I'd sell both seats for $500 as long as you arrange for shipping from TX to your location. Alternatively, I'd trade for a set of appropriate seats for my 1977:



I would be interested in stock 70's era seats but would prefer something more like these Sport S series http://www.classiccarseats.com/sports-seats.php

but open to any and all trade offers. Happy to just sell these seats and go off and buy whatever I need if an appropriate trade isn't out there.

Sorry for the off topic question, but where did you get the new sportback seats?

Thanks everyone! The seats were in the car when I bought it. The color on the seat backs are custom to match the car. I do love them! Appreciate the kind words!

Is there a name/label on the back of the seats up by the headrest area of the sportback seats?

I'm the PO of this car and I bought the seats from ray Joseph at RPM here local, they are OEM sport seats with the porsche crest and heated I also had the back painted it to match the car (turquoise Blau)

Congratulations on the buyer of the seats, you got a set of great seats

OK gang. So these are back on the market as the first person to step up for them didn't realize that "I'd sell both seats for $500 as long as you arrange for shipping from TX to your location."

So. I guess I should restate a bit more clearly. Basically the deal is that I'm selling them cheap because the seats are in Texas. I'm in Seattle. So whomever buys them needs to arrange for boxing them up and shipping them on your own. Someone will be there to meet you and show you the seats but you'd need to have someone box them up for you etc. That's why I've set the price so low.

As I said earlier, the seats are stock, black Porsche 993 seats - NOT the blue hardbacks you see in these photos (which replaced the stock ones). So, if you want a great deal on some really nice stock black seats and you're resourceful enough to figure out how to get someone in Houston to box them up for you then they are all yours for $500~

Do you have any pictures or details on the seats?
Are they supple or regular comfort seats?
4-way, 8-way or 12-way power?
Heated?
