I understand the lightweight bucket seat is based upon the CGT seat. Whether they are actually identical or not, perhaps one of the other guys here could confirm whether that is the case ...

I thought it was but i really am not positive. That seat is getting old so i could have been slightly updated/modified by now.
indeed shifting is ancient technology - so is a fuel burning engine.. I happen to like both :)

Lightweight bucket seats.
"Standard on the 911 GT3 RS, optional on the 911 GT3, these carbon-fibre bucket seats are derived from the Carrera GT. The racing design includes manual fore/aft adjustment and provides exceptional lateral support.
Weighing around 20 kg in total, the overall saving compared with the standard sports seats is approximately 24 kg. If ordered in conjunction with the Clubsport package (standard on 911 GT3 RS), the lightweight bucket seats have a flame-retardant fabric finish."

For reference, the official part numbers for the original Carrera GT carbon-fibre lightweight bucket seats include:
* 980 521 401 02 (Carrera GT seat)
* 980 521 403 00 (CGT seat cushion)
