Chris, I have GT3's in my C2 and i am 6'4" and 225 (be it a skinny 225). I just had Alex slam them to the floor on BK mounts and tilted them back at a slight angle. Works great! With the GT3 delete soon to come i should have all the knee room I need. They are the second best mod ever (sorry, i am in LOVE with my suspension...) Wife even loves them to, likes the way they hold you in place. And what was the back seat for anyway? Storage????

They should make two versions at least... I know. It's hard being that tall for sure in sports cars.

GT3 seats / 5 pt belts are great for a modded TT. One less thing for the brain to process (keeping your body in place when you drop the hammer) and just concentrate on driving !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

?The new GT3 seats look exactly like the CGT seats and will fit in our 996tt's
They are exactly what I have been looking for. I have a set on order. The older style ones should become more available and prices will probably be dropping.

Hmm, I think the stock seats are not as good as they should be but I will also add that the car is a GT so attention was paid to comfort. Now as far as GT3 seats are concerned, they are great but only for those who fit in them. I was planning to spend the extra cash and equip the used 996 I am getting with a set but after asking people I decided to go and sit in them and I found them quite uncomfortable... Maybe I am getting old though.
