Taken from discussions on the 968UK forum :-

........... the original CS seats were a RECARO SP-G seat modified to a Porsche spec.
Retail Pricing for the current SP-G is as follows:
SP-G £665 per seat inc. VAT
Side-mount brackets £70 per seat inc. VAT
Fitting Kit for a 968 £149 per seat inc. VAT
(although it may be possibe to use a runner only at £70 per seat inc. VAT)
So you're looking at £735 - £884 per seat inc. VAT ready to fit, trimmed in black cloth.

My recommendation would be to fit RECARO Pole Position with ABE, this is the only 'shell seat' on the market from any manufacturer with TuV certification for road use as the lower side-bolster belt aperture has been specially designed to allow the belt buckle to be inserted into the seat, improving both comfort and safety.

The price is as follows:
Pole Position ABE £645 per seat inc. VAT
Side-mount brackets £70 per seat inc. VAT
Fitting Kit for a 968 £149 per seat inc. VAT
(although it may be possibe to use a runner only at £70 per seat inc. VAT)
So you're looking at £715 - £864 per seat inc. VAT ready to fit.
This is for the seat trimmed in black, blue or red cloth.
We offer the Pole Position ABE trimmed in Ambla leather (black) on the bolsters/borders with Dinamica Suede centre panels (black, red, blue, beige or silver) for an extra £55 and a silver metallic or gun metallic shell finish (really nice) for an extra £90 on the Ambla/Dinamica trim versions.
