The GT3 seats were OEM from a 996 GT3, purchased used from Polar Porsche. They are a simple and direct bolt-in replacement (4 bolts and two locating studs) and the stock 3-point belts work. The wiring harness underneath the seat is compatible though there are fewer wires. Even though I disconnected the battery during the work, the airbag/seat sensor light is on, which is a known complication. I am told that it can be reset at a dealer in about 30 minutes, but I think I'll just put a sticker over it. I looked at buying an aftermarket Recaro, but by the time you get all the various adapters for mounting and belts, the price was similar to what I paid, so I thought this was a better deal with better potential resale. Also, the height of the opening for the shoulder belts works with my personal measurements.
