So I just bought this amazing 914 which is set up really nicely, but the seats are too aggressive for a daily driver IMO. The present seats are Sparco Pro 2000 seats and 5 point harnesses, and I think I'm just too wide for them. Too bad because they are in like new condition. I'm 6'0" and 200 pounds, with a size 36 waist and size 42 jacket. I'd like to get something else a bit less aggressive but still sporting, comfortable and attractive.

Are there any fitment issues with 914s due to the size/shape of the cockpit? Am I limited to a certain shape or size seat?

Does anyone have any suggestions for something that might bolt up to my Sparco seat tracks?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for the welcome, much appreciated. I don't have many pics of the car and the one I do have is not hosted on the internet (I know I know, but give me a break I'm an old dude).

Here is a link to a walk around and interior:

I really like those 993 seats. What year did they come out of? What should I expect to pay for a nice set of them?

Will my Sparco tracks work with other Sparco seats?

Will Sparco tracks work with other mfr seats?

I'm going to sell the Sparcos when the car arrives so I'll keep you guys posted in case you want a good deal on them. Thanks for all the help.

Pretty soon my handle will be exmoparguy...
