Looking for non-power seat rails
I know - it's a long shot, but...
Does anyone have a set of seat rails off a non-power seat late model 944?
I have a set of power seats, and cannot use my current rails because there is a bracket that's welded to the seat rail that controls the power seat height adjuster.
So I need a set of rails (1 driver side, 1 passenger side) that doesn't have this bracket but does have the seat belt anchor point in the inner rail.
Looking for a set to complete my swap to race seats.
Or, if you have other suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks,
-Z-man.

Thanks guys - I can use the 924 / 924S rails I think - I am uncertain if the hole the bolts go through are as big as they are on the 944S2.
That said, the 924 / 924S inner seatbelt anchorpoints are mounted to the torque tube tunnel, where the 944S2's there's a bolt on the seat rail itself that the inner seat belt anchor points are attached to. I'm hoping to find a non-power seat seat rail from a later model 944, after they switched to the new mounting point. I really don't want to start drilling through my tunnel!
If I can't find such a rail, I will be in touch with you. Thanks for the offers so far!

They are all the same since seats up to a 993 or 996 are all interchangable. You might have to drill an extra mouning hole though, early seats are 4 bolt mount and late are 6 bolt mount. I'm pretty sure the seat belt actually bolts to the seat frame and not the sliding rail itself but I've been known to be wrong before. I've got both style seats at home so I'll take a look tomorrow.
