I think the conversion is closer to $3600 U.S. if it's 2795 euro...

I would hold out and wait till you can get the new GT3 seats in your car. I think the old ones look a little dated in a 997. IMO

the airbags in ur current seats will be a problem. it can be turned off but find a shop or dealer willing to do that first.

If you can't bring the seats to the car, bring the car to the seats - just buy a GT3

sunset porsche or foreign affairs (both in FL) are cheaper (2600 ish)

the seat bolts right in 997 without any mods. you do need dealers PIWIS computer to turn off the airbag warning light.

Porsche seats are made by Recaro

Its real simple, go to the Recaro website and pick the seats you like.

You can get them in the color/fabric you want.

Any seat the put in OEM application are based on a current model without paying Porsche thousands extra at the dealer.
