Newb needs help identifying seats

[rsgenerals]

I'm thinking about picking up this pair of seats but don't know what kind of seats they are. It is claimed that they are Recaro out of a 1978 924. Any help? How can I know for sure? What would a fair price be?

Wow those look nicer maybe recovered well done. Yes those are 924 and early 1983-1985/1 seats for sure I would say they are worth between $300-$700 depending on the right buyer for the color combo. They also work in earlier 1970-1984 911 cars with different sliders mounted so if someone over that way finds out they need them for there precious garage queen they could sell for over $1k if the sliders are perfect with no rust, the foam is original and in excellent shape etc....

If you remove the plastic by the seat belt clip there's a part number and it also says recaro on there.

All Porsche seats are manufactured by Recaro. In 1963, Porsche acquired Recaro Carosserie-Werke (they made the 356 bodies for Porsche) and renamed the company Recaro GmbH & Co, and changed the focus of the company to just high end seats. In 1983 Porsche sold their controlling interest in Recaro to Keiper, which reanmed the company Keiper Recaro GmbH & Co. Porsche continues to use Recaro seats.
