Default 964 Sport seats

I'm looking for some 8-way power Sport seats for my 91 964. Going to go with black leather w/ houndstooth inserts.

Question: what model years are these seats available from? Below is the pic of my standard power seats on my car now

Those would be '87 to '94 seats. The 993 version will have different stitching pattern.
Are you set on 8-way? A large majority of these are 4 way.

Good luck with your search, I looked for months to find some nice ones and the right color, didn't have much luck, so I found a good leather guy here in town and he told me to buy some old used one in any color and he will make them to the color I wanted them, so I did and here are the results, I just picked up my last set yesterday,..
1st set is the ones I picked up yesterday
2nd set is the set on my 90 964
3rd set is set on my 88 911

Thanks for the replies. All I need are some good cores, leather can be trashed as they will be re-upholstered. What I figured on the 8 way vs 4 way pwr seat gig...

Opo those seats look great !

Out of interest what sort of price are peiople getting quoted for a seat retrim? I've only had 1 quote from a local trimmer at £1500. Seems a lot to me although his work looked top notch.

Most of the total cost will depend on the fabric you choose.

My guy charge me $2k but he converted my seats from a regular seat to a sport seat, the cashmere set is full electric and heated sport seat, which I think porsche didn't make that type of sport seat for the 964 (heated and full electric) I think they were all manual..

So my sport seats are almost done...almost. Will post some pics when they are in the car.

Still undecieded about the original 8-way power seats. Keep them, or sell?
Very, very good conditon, black leather, out of a 60,000 mile C4.
What are they worth $1000, $1200-1500 ??
