997 folding reclining bucket seat (one) Recaro Sporster CS - local pickup only
For SaleInterior/Upholstery
Description:
I want to sell this seat i used for DE events, as i rarely do it now. It is a direct replacement for a stock seat with a receptacle for stock belt and hook for a harness, with a connection cord.
All you need to do is to unbolt the stock seat and put this one instead, and plug in the cord. I do not recall if i had to disable the driver side weight sensor/air bags in PIWIS for this or not, it may be needed - do your own research. Price is firm, local pickup only.
Seat looks like new, it is well built.It is perfectly comfortable for daily driving, I would usually install it in the spring and use it during warm season, and take it off to put in seats with heating for winter.
Do not waste my time if you not sure of what it is for, please. It sits on rails for the 997.1 narrow body car - my car is 2006 C2 997.1. I do not know if later generations altered dimensions of seat rails, be sure to find out yourself.
Please review carefully of what it is here:

Also an important note - the Recaro CS does not have a hole in the seat base so you cannot run standard 6 pt harness - but a workaroud exists - a 'jet pilot' harness

it gets mounted to 4 points but has antisubmarine belt and is SFI 16.1.
Or, alternatively, you can still use a CG Lock device. It works perfectly with this seat and you will not be moving nowhere.

GLWS!
i never wanted/needed a matching seat, and the process of importing it was a bit of a pita. it may be easier to do now, who knows, but, still, shipping for the crate, taxes, customs duty, price of the rail - it all adds up, so it was in the $2400 or so area all in all, if not more, i do not even remember anymore, it was a while ago.
when i got it - it was pretty much the only option on the market with the adjustable recline and bucket shape - perfect for a daily driver.
as of heating - it is not really needed. i never did it - but the seat has the opening and mounts for the ventilator to be installed - if one wants it can be connected to the heater pins in the connector. i did not need it, but it is possible to do.
