Question Anyone know of a good source for RS replica seats???

I'm looking for some RS replica seats (or something close to them) Can anyone point me in the right direction for completing my RS project?
Thanks,
Chad

Chad, do a search here on the BBS - you will come up with several previous threads on this topic.

If you're after accurate replicas of the original RS Carrera lightweight seats check out these :

http://www.911classic.de/pages_en/start.htm

then click on "classic" & "RS sports seats".

Thanks

I did do a search but I did not find anything suitable. Andy, that is a great link. Those are by far the best replica seats I have seen. Thanks so much. I just sent an email ordering the RS interior (Seats, carpet, boot area,rubber mats etc) I cant wait. Thanks again!

Are none of these seats available from a US source??? It is maddening to be faced with a $2000 restoration bill for seats worth less than half of that currently. As my cardex shows only standard seating, originality is not as much an issue as authentic appearance to me...

Chad, did they ever get back to? I've sent a couple of emails inquiring about costs & shipping to the U.S. but no response.

Might have to give them a call next week -- wonder if I'll need a translator...

Never heard from them either

I never recieved anything back, so screw them. TRE called me and let me know they are in the process of making a good replica seat here in the US. I have seen some of there other products and they are top notch. I will wait for those.
