Autos International http://www.autosintl.com/ also has it, usually in stock and will make the covers with it inserted.

If it was ever on a Porsche, Autos International either has it or they can usually get it, if you know what it looked like. They will send samples as well.

http://www.smsautofabrics.com/ is where i got my yellow porsche plaid.
It is AN EXACT REMAKE of the original.
They are also the manufacturer that made this material and they are the supplier to many upholsters across the country.
So if you find it somewhere else... they got it from SMS.

I got the yellow plaid.
They have other porsche plaids too.
They will also send you free samples.

These seats were in a car I found in a junkyard. Appeared to be original but they were trashed. Very cool though.
