997.2 GT3 - adding rear seats?

A buddy of mine did this with factory parts for his .1 GT3 and it worked out perfectly for him since all of the mounting points where there.
Does anyone know or have experience doing this with a .2 GT3?

Tia,
Pete

I would think there would be no difference between a .1 and .2.

There are some threads about this on rennlist. The consensus there is that you can do this on the 997.1 fairly easily, but probably shouldn't on the 997.2. Apparently Porsche removed some additional material to save weight on the 997.2 that makes adding rear seats more complicated. There is at least one person that has done it though.

After just looking on Rennlist, I came up with the same conclusion. .1 no problem, questionable on a .2 with one owner of a white one that successfully make the modification.
