I need some help with sport seats????

First , Thanks for looking and any help.These sport seats are in my 74 911. Could they have come with this car? Iam trying to find an interior trim kit for the seats but I was not sure of the year..There is a bar running from left to right . Any help from you folks will be appreciated..

Those seats would be correct for 1974.

Do the seats need to be fully recovered? They don't look bad from the photo. Perhaps you can find a local upholstery shop that can repair a damaged panel or re-pad the seats for you if the covers are still good. We do this for customers all the time, and it can be very economical.

Good question geshaghi

I did take them to an interior guy Saturday. Hes the one that told me he didnt want to try and make the panels needed. That what I ask for when i arrived.The driver seat is worse than the passenger seat thats shown.The perforated centers are pretty hard also.Maybe Ill check with another interior guy and see if he has interest in doing a few panels for me... Thanks The worst is the driver side left bolster on the bottom .

Try "mr interiors" or "autocraftseatcovers" & "autocraftinteriors" (all the same company) they should have the exact OE match & sell panels/sections seperately @ pretty reasonable prices in pretty much any material/colour incl. OE, I've used them a while back & nobody came close to their pricing, perfect fit & great quality

Personally, I wouldn't bother replacing panels. The color and leather won't match and you won't be happy. Just have the complete covers replaced. They'll look like new and you won't have to replace them later. Try to contact Tony at Autobahn Interiors in So. Cal. He may not be the cheapest but the work is fantastic.
