914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ FS: Original 914 / 6 GT M491 Recaro Lightweight Fiberglass Seat, RARE

Posted by: jpsurfer Aug 8 2020, 11:25 AM

Very rare factory 914 sport dealer option seat by Recaro. This seat is completely original including all upholstery and no fiberglass repairs. Great for a real 914/6, or M491 GT, tribute car, or period correct hot rod. This seat is very similar to the 911 ST Recaro seat with the same bolster profile but a slightly more upright back, narrower headrest, and cutout in the bottom. The stock 914 seat rails bolt right up to this in minutes so car retains all forward/backward and tilt adjustments. Pretty narrow seat and not likely comfortable for anyone above a 33" waist size. Don't miss this opportunity to own a rare piece of Porsche history.

Price: $SOLD

I have more pics for interested parties.

This FS seat looks diff than Armandos seat. Maybe there were diff flavors of GT seats? Also does not explain if the seats were part of the M491 option
