Found these on CL for REAL CHEAP. Still have rain water on them when I took these pics last night. Perfect Pascha but the brown vinyl is torn at the sew line and I know I could fix that and save them in stock condition. BUT...I am thinking about pulling what good condition cashmere leather I have from my S4 seats and putting it on these seats. They are full manual and weigh 32 lbs....thoughts?

I think this pascha is still available but $$$. I could recover the door inserts with very little material. BTW...they are VERY soft and comfortable.

OB Manual seats - nice find!!!

I don't think I've seen pasha in that color before, new ideas for my mocha brown 81.

Was told by the seller they are out of a 1980 911Sc euro....still...very comfortable.

Dean,
I have manual seats in my '83 Euro. I did it to create more headroom and save weight. I love them.

Dean,
These are pre 1985 911 seats that might not look right on a 928s which have deep grooves and raised cushions. Your S4 seat leathers will not fit these. To be honest, these 911 seats will take too much money to restore to Pasha. You might just pay a little more and ask Paul to customize your S4 seats.

^^^ Dean has the talent to fix them by himself

Dean: I agree with previous posters that they will look awkward in your car, unless you do a matching combo of front and rear seats with the leather color that's already in your car, plus the closest matching color of Pascha.

Those look identical (except for the pasha) to the sport seats that came in my 81.

Thats the same color seats I have in the really early car - brown vinyl and black and brown pascha (047A).
Yep! 911 seats.

Here is a shot of a section of the back seat to see how the cashmere would look next to this pascha. I like it a lot.

I agree! I think the cashmere looks great with the phasha and I have no doubt that you will make it look awsome!

I painted a front bumper today for a friends alero. A quick process. Fixed a tear in the bumper, wet sanded to the primer, primered, sanded and laid down some black. Very fast and enough to make her presentable. Tomorrow I will finish painting and call it a day, It took ALL day but it was fun to do the work again.

What you are doing is awesome and anyone who has attempted the process themselves will understand what you have done!

Thanks Stephen...I've needed something to focus on.

It's only four bolts, just install the damn things already

If your seats on your 1981 look identical to Dean's seats, then your seats are 911 seats put in your 928. These are definitely pre-1985 911 standard seats, not sport seats. I had the same seats on my 1980 911Sc and 1984 Carrera. The 911/928 sport seats have high side boosters on the back as well as at the leg area. The bottom cushion sticks out forward beyond the side boosters. Please correct me if I am wrong but this is what I have seen and learned since the late 70s lusting over the 928. Does the USA 928 have different sport seats than the rest of the world?
I will be going to Chuck's site to dig out some pics.

The early 928 and 911 use the same sport seats but they have entirely different standard seats. Dean's seats are definitely NOT sport seats but standard pre-85 911 seats.
Here is a picture of the sport seats on a 911. The 1981 928 sport seats should look the same.
Note the lack of grooves on the headrests.

Headrest area is different... pleating is different... forward seat bottom transition to bolsters is different...

Sure, similar DNA... just different parents. More like cousins than siblings to each other...
