PS wow thats actually an awful pic wtf pixel6pro, seats are brand new and so is the mtextür. Gonna need to remedy that. After installing them I needed to get rid of the oem center console and the arm rest, so this was to put in new arm rest delete.
Man I need me some of these.

How many of you are opting for the leather outer portion?
We put a set of these with the Vinyl outer in a 996 GT3 and I think that looks damn good to my eye vs. leather. I was told by HMS that the leather would last longer if properly cared for but the price difference was quite staggering.
When it comes to the M3 I'll spend more attention to detail (and money) as the Porsche isnt really driven that on the street all that often. But if anyone had some good photos or opinions of vinyl vs. leather that would be great.

Related question. Anyone who has had these trimmed to mimic the CSL seats, what fabric did you use for the centre panels of the seat? I'm assuming everyone's using Alcantara 9002 for the outer portions of the seat, but can't seem to find any consensus on the centre panels, On the basis that the original Amaretta Reflex fabric is unavailable I've been trying to find the best substitute.
TIA

I’m afraid that’s not true https://www.subesports.com is direct US IMPORTER of those seats as well. I know from experience when I bought mine last year HMS was quoting me $1230 per seat plus shipping plus state tax while subie sports offered them at $1099 per seat with free shipping plus you can get extra 10% off both seats cost me $2078 out the door last year and they don’t charge state tax either 😊that’s another +$150 savings on both seats, if you sign up for their yearly membership which you can use on everything else they sell like Schtoth harnesses for example I ordered my 2027 Schroth FLEXI harness from them last month for $467 with the 10% discount is good for 1 year from initial sign up, while everyone else is selling them for $519 plus state tax and up. Only reason I know they are direct importer is because my seats where stuck on a ship directly from England for month outside LA port they are located on west coast, (kinda funny that seats had to go around whole continent before they got to me I’m in New England btw) they were very informative throughout the whole process they basically import whole containers of various cobra seats including Nogaros only down side is if you want something custom like special finishes then HMS can tailor better to someone’s needs but if you want standard finishes you can’t beat their pricing, same thing with Schroth belts they directly import them from Germany, good company great people very happy with their services

User install error. The left and right slider wasn't even so my dumb ass thought they were the wrong sliders. All I had to do was pull the lever and line them up correctly.

Anyone have a part number for manual sliders?

... and you'd be buying the same thing you already bought, that doesn't fit. Sound to me like you got faulty part from BK, or are having some sort of install error...

DoubleSidedTape if you end up going through with it please update with your findings. I would eventually like to get mine redone in Imola.
