Sorry for the confusion, mistype by me corrected above. I was only referring to the patch being used in the 964 Cup seats, not the seat shell.

I have been wondering for YEARS where this seat originated. Thank you!

How do you mean? Patch, sticker or seat? Do You mean the Porsche crest in the back? Interesting if this is a cup seat

I mean that the crest azander was referring to was sewn into the headrest of 964 Cup cars. I am not sure if the rest of the seat is identical to the similar later 993 versions with the same crest.

Photos of the 964 Cup with the crest can be seen here:
