Default What Seat id tag numbers mean

Hello, I tore apart my seats so I could put new foam and leather on them. I found them to be rusted more than I hoped for. Looks like I have some repair work to do. But, in the course of tearing then apart I found they had ID tags on then. Could you guys tell me what these numbers mean? I searched and didn't find an exact answer. Thanks.

It's been a long time, but if I remember correctly - 0321 would be the 32 day of 71 or 81.

My 71 seats have 0491 on then - it's a march car which would make sense..

If I'm correct ?

Thanks. Mines a 71 vert. According to the VIN, it was a later number build. But I know parts sit around sometimes before they are matched up with your car.

So does the top one mean it was made the 292 day of 74 or 84?

I would think 282 day of 74 - 84 different seat C4.

I used a 76 bottom to fix one of my 71 seats. It had 1806 on the tag. ( the guy I got the seat from said it was an 76 seat)


If I remember right : its the JULIAN DATE , 1 to 365(366) and the last # of the year. 1971 = 1
