Replacing front seats in 951
Okay, need help on seat selection for 951. Interior is beige/tan.
Front seats, especially driver's side needs replacing and covering will not do.
Any thoughts on aftermarket seats? Trying to stay with car's interior color if possible.
Thanks

Hi Jeff,
Certainly not full racing seats. Thinking of some kind of aftermarket seat that might fill the needs. Or... good source for used Porsche seats in recoverable shape or useable as is.
Thanks,
Don

True that.
If you're really picky you can find a good upholstery shop and have the skins and pads replaced. I did this on my '85 and they're literally like brand new. Nirvana for my ***. They did come with a very steep price tag though.
For the more budget-minded I'd say the Rennbay kits are a good option.

Here are the pictures for those that requested them. As you can see the seats are worn, but the padding is good in both seats. The back seat is also for sale.
