I'm looking to sort out the seats in my 944 - they need new covers really as they are pretty tired. the seats and foam are ok as far as I can tell. All I can find is the 944 online site but as there from the US and the shipping costs will be high. Anyone know a UK supplier?

what material are you after ?

thomas at werk924.com stocks plenty of the different cloth, you can get any decent trimmer to do it for you. They will replace the thin layers of foam that will have rotted away

To be honest I’m not fussed- I was thinking maybe a faux leather or similar. They are cream cloth inserts with vinyl bolsters at the moment but they get dirty too quickly. And all the vinyl has split driverside. Would also consider full vinyl if it was perforated. Not sure I can afford leather.
