Upholstery fabric help
I’m trying to find a place where I can buy upholstery material for my 74 911. The COA says “midnight leatherette / 12 “ as the interior material color/code. Rear seats are correct but the previous owner had front seats converted to fabric. Attached are some pics of interior.
Does anyone know where I can order the original fabric from? Autobahn interiors sent me two samples to compare and they aren’t correct. Here are some pics. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You could try Classic 9 Leather Shop, they have access to a good selection of leather, vinyl and fabric.

Classic 9 didn't have it and they didn't know what the code could be. I don't see it on the other websites either. "Midnight Leatherette" basically means the color is 'Midnight' and the material is 'vinyl' if I'm not mistaken. How hard can it be?!

12 is going to be a cloth/leatherette combo. Shetland is what it’s officially called. Similar to the seats you pictures where tops will be cloth but sides will be leatherette

Worked with Andrew at Classic 9 and after taking another look, we found the material. Just received my front set and the pigskin is a match.
