    I'm about through with my OEM seats. They're black and basically perfect, but too uncomfortable.

    I drove a Porsche 928 a few months ago, and those seats felt wonderful and still reflect the '80s styling:

    Was he able to retain the power adjustment function?

    Looks like the Fore and aft control switch had to be removed to clear the parking brake, but the recline switch is still there.

    Hoo mama that's a sexy sound system, gives me ideas!

    I could be dense (I don't know my Porches that well), but the horizontal stitching is different between the two sets of pics, don't know if that matters at all, worth mentioning.

    Nice!

    I'm thinking of putting Corvette C6 seats in my car if the price is right...

    It looks so good, but it looks like you're 2" higher than stock. I'm already out of headroom.
