Hi Gang, I just sat in the 914 to work on my turn signal switch and tore my passenger seat bottom. Ratfarts! Must be a combination of being cold and old. Anyway, I'm sure this is a common problem on our old seats. Where can I get the material for the seat inserts, or is there a preferred upholsterer? Thanks for the help.

I agree that finding another used bottom (or two) is best, but since the seat is on a different plane than the back, the difference in vintage may not be very noticeable. FYI, recovering the seat bottom is super easy to DIY. Just need a good staple gun and about an hour.
