So I was cruising CL and came across a '87 924 with a perfect interior for rock bottom price.
I know the 924 was essentially a parts bin car, but how much (or any parts)overlap was there with the 928... more specifically, were the seats compatible?
I can see the seat release is the same in the pic, but don't have a image of the bottom of the seat to see if powered, or how.
Any other parts that one could pull of a 924?
I feel like I could get the whole 924 for less then I could replace or repair my current seats.

Might have to fab some brackets I think. 924/944 seats seem a bit more narrow than 928.

I've got 944 turbo seats in my S4. They fit fine.

No mods needed. You just need an Allen wrench.

The electrical would need wired up. Mine were manuals.

924 & 944 seats, they would be the same.

Brother, with a killer avatar like that, you could put folding lawn chairs in your car and you could still keep your card.

Yeah second that, I put 944 seats , 968 seats on an early 928 .. They all just bolt right up

Thanks you guys, I appreciate you letting me know.
Now, I guess I need to decide if I want to pursue it.
I was planning on using my last wife points on a S3 parts car -- if I ever came across one.
My concern is that I would feel sorry for the 924 and start working on it if it was sitting at my house, LOL.


And thanks Dan, I will try to live up to your expectations!
BTW, congratulations on your first year in the brotherhood -- you still got a positive outlook, ten fingers, and your sanity!

944 seats are in my parts car...cloth, and a bit tattered, but they appear to fit just fine. Go for it!

Ok... I'm your reference for keeping your card.

I've got 924 seats in my 928. They're full manual and are lighter than 928 seats. A bit lower, too. Same tracks and mounting points. Went in without issue and look fine.
