914World.com _ Originality and History _ Looking for recommendations for 1971 interior

Posted by: maj75 Dec 8 2020, 10:11 PM

Correct interior kit for 1971 914. I the seats appear to be vinyl which is smooth on all surfaces. I need the backpad recovered as well. Can’t seem to find any smooth seat kits. They appear to only have basketweave material in the center. I really want this interior to be correct which means new dash pad and top of the dash vinyl as well.

Looking for recommendations for a kit or somewhere that knows how to do a correct ‘71 interior.

'71 was one year only material. I would find a really good upholstery shop and talk to them about what you want. You might have to ship and it might get pricy.

I assume expensive. I have a local upholstry shop but they are only OK. I’m hoping for a referral if I have to go outside South Florida. I concerned about the back pad. I can’t figure out how that gets recovered and yet looks original.
