Has anybody bought these and can report on them:

These seats look like a pair of leather ones I saw at Kragen last weekend. $150 each. Check those out, might even be online.

David, Kragen is equivalent to Schucks in Washington State.

The seat they have is simulated leather and not like the seat above.

The store display said "Leather"
It was up high and I couldn't check out the material.

I've a set of the Kragen seats in my Motorhome not bad for the price, $89.each. I couldn't buy materials to cover a set of seats at that price. They're not bad, but not great either.In the Porsche it's Recaros or TRE copys.

Like I said I'd go with Recaros. Those other seats are the same as the Kragen seats for a lot more $$$$.

I put these same seats into my brothers FJ40, they are not comfortable any extended amount of time. Purchased them right off the shelf at Autozone.

I agree, they look pretty good in the photo but if they are obviously fake leather--not in a Porsche!
The only answer is to go to one of these stores and check out the finish and comfort--They are ridiculously cheap.
