Seat back failure solution
#4
Living in Texas you will find out how the seat backs are glued onto clips and they melt in our July/August heat after a few years of exposure.
I can buy 3M glue, the same glue I use to attach felt onto slate pool tables and it still fails within 2-3 months or any active use of seat's up or down. If you never put your seats up, you'll probably avoid the issue.

By the way your interior looks about the same as mine with the black and wood trim. Nice!

I saw a dealer put screws through the back of the shell into the mounting clips. I looked ugly. Grey interior with white headed screws.

If you do not actively use the Cayenne as I do, you probably will not have an issue.
180k miles, duck hunting, 3 dog hauling, and constant project movements have me up and down with the seats, against the seat back panels.

I will be attaching more gear to the molle panels as I find value along the way.

Glued mine with a generous helping of gorilla glue. They haven't moved since. The gorilla glue stays flexible and is super tough. It also wicks into the fiberboard of the seatback very well. I drilled holes in the plastic clips so that the glue could go all the way through and lock the plastic down to the fiberboard. One of the issues with gorilla glue is that it expands and foams as it dries. To combat this I used a small drop of superglue in the middle of the clip so that the gorilla glue wouldn't cause the clip to puff up and move around or slide down as it dried. I used lots of glue over the top of the clip creating a glue strap to lock it down to the fiberboard. It's very very strong.

are the clips which come at the bottom also available... i have broken one of mine and need to replace it the next time it comes off.

A quick check of the parts diagram reveals that there is no listing for either the 3 top plastic mounts or the lower two. To be honest, my lowers are broken also. If you fix the tops, the elastic straps that hold the leather trim piece attached to the bottom of the seat back will suck the bottom of the seat back up tight.
