During my Miata ownership period, I found a great deal on a set of Katzskin leather seat covers. (The seller bought the covers but sold the car before installing them.) I considered installing the covers myself. I read several posts in which owners used zip ties instead of hog rings to install them. On the Miata, some of the zip ties would rub on metal which eventually sawed through them. I don't know whether this would occur on a Boxster, but I think wiebuschk is likely correct with his guidance on this issue.
I think it is also wise to expect that some of the foam in your driver's seat will need to be enhanced. Someone has been sitting in that seat for almost 25 years and some wear and tear is inevitable. Passenger seats are not occupied all the time, so that may not need any work.
