Default Porsche seats

Installed seats from a 75 Porsche 911 T they fit like a glove in my 68.
Just a heads up to anyone looking for new/other seats.

Nice. How much did the custom stitching run you?

2k for the leatherwork done by a pro including the logos, probably expensive by american standards but everything here in Denmark is way to expensive

i bought the seats on ebay from Germany for 400usd

I have to admit I clicked on the link with a frown, 911 seats in a Vette?!. When I saw them I smiled. Looks really good. If you hadn't told me they were 911 seats, I would have guessed Corvette C5 seats. Looks really nice. I ownder if the GT3 carbon fibre seats would fit in my C3. Thanks for opening my eyes to new possibilities.

400 dollars? That's not much! Where they leather? Or cloth and you had them refurbished?
