Hey elite, maybe a little OT, but where are you in Columbus? OSU? There are a couple of us rennlisters that go to OSU and a few others live within 30 min. Nice to see another local!

I'd second Dan's "used" idea. There were only a few colors of interiors in the 944s, and a lot of guys take out perfectly good leather seats to go racing. If you put out a feeler, you may be surprised how well you can do with used seats for a couple hundred bucks. (thanks, chip! ) OK, so the match isn't perfect but it is great for a beater!
These pics are as purchased, then with the covers off (holes in fabric), then with the leather.

i never had any luck finding good stuff in the junk yards around columbus. there was a cheap place (most yards are on mckinley ave) called woody's that had a 924 and a 924s that i got some parts from, but peopel before me were breaking things off to get parts. i think they sent them away to the crusher close to a year ago.
im having better luck finding used parts from rennlisters. good luck with your car.
