Default Looking to buy or trade for orange, ventilated, roadster seats

Hi All,
I know this could (should?) be in the WTB forum, but as a roadster owner, I don't frequent that section for roadster things as often as I do this dedicated roadster section, so here goes.

My wife and I have been ZR owners since 2005 when I bought her a 2004 ZR with 29,000 miles from a friend and original owner for our first anniversary. It has the ventilated seats.





I quickly added the Brembo brakes and 06+ wheels for "winter" and SSR GT3 wheels that we use for the other 9 months of the year:



Fast-forward 5 years, and that toy has 84,000 miles and is currently for sale since I replaced it with a black, 2007 ZR about 4 months back. The dealer offered me $11k for it, which I happily declined.







I must admit, the black seats in the new ZR are beautiful. The Z was garage-kept, and the owner rarely put the top down. The smell and feel of new the new leather is fantastic, but I'm missing the one-piece ventilated seats. We considered putting the ones from the 04' into the 07', and although they are in good condition, they certainly aren't new so shouldn't go into this pristine 07' that she has.

I'm in a position to start looking for really good condition, ventilated seats. Of course I have the black leather seats to trade (as well as black cloth seats from my 03' coupe if that's preferred), but neither of those is necessary. Any chance one of you out there has upgraded your ventilated seats to something else, or the orange just isn't your thing?

Thanks!

I have a set of the original roadster powered seats. Just replaced them for leather. Might you be interested in discussing a trade for the SSR gt3 wheels? Wasn't sure if you were considering getting rid of those, but thought id ask! I have a set of Konigs now, but sure like the SSR look. Thanks

Not the GT3 wheels, but I do have a set of SSR Competition wheels and the 06+ wheels for sale. You wouldn't sell the seats outright? They are the burnt orange/ventilated seats, ya?

They're not the orange seats...all black powered cloth. Wasn't sure if you were planning on getting rid of the GT3s. Thinking we might swap wheels if you were planning on getting rid of the car. Really had my heart set on the GT3s. Thanks!
