I'm hoping to get my 944 seats sorted out. Rear seat has a small rip on the top where the sun has weakened the material so need to repair or replace. Passender seat is ok apart from a cigarette burn in the base, drivers is ripped on the backrest. I could get away with finding a passenger seat, I can then use the existing passenger seat as a doner for the drivers seat backrest.

Trouble is, I think the material I've got in mine (great with small pinstipes) is quite rare. Anyone got spare trim parts for such an interior?

You'll need to talk to Southbound aside from being the specialist in Pork trim they've had some of the cloths remade, they'll be able to tell you whats available. When you've had there quote & picked yourself up again :mrgreen: you may find it cheaper to find a better pair of seats from a breaker.

I think I'll stick it out and wait for some seats to become available either through the forums of ebay. I'd like to stick with the same seat material though.

Gregson, bit cheeky I know but how much, as in order of magnitude if you like.

Mine is burgundy pin-stripe which is pretty rare.

Edited to say that looks fantastic :lol:
