Yes, John did an all leather 914 interior for me about 14 years ago. Came out awesome. I did have to call, and call, and call, and threaten legal action, but it came out beautiful.

Has anybody checked with James at 914 Appearance about making some of these up? He is now making the door covers and back wall in fiberglass.

Update:

"The Porsche Place" & "Original Fit Interiors" are the same place. Spoke with John. He does offer the updated 911 style door panels for our 914's. The pricing seemed to be reasonable, of course materials and stitching options drive the price up. He starts with a stock door panel and modifies it, does some fiberglassing etc. He has no cores, you must send him yours.
Given past feedback from various boards it appears that John does decent work. He is just very slow on filling orders. Has anybody here dealt with him in the past?


I just received an E/mail back from John @ Original Fit. Apparently he was sourcing his armrest pockets from Getty, which are NLA. The search continues, I want a set of these.

James is just finishing up a custom back pad for me, and now that he is using the fiberglass panals- he has fiberglass door panals already- i am sure he could do custom- might be doing a mod. to 911 actual arm rest but i bet he can get it done for us, maybe a group buy thing or something like that.

I just sent James an e/mail about an hour ago. Maybe with more than just one e/mail to him we could twist his arm a little on this? I'm more than willing and would be very happy to have a new pair of panels made from the glass ones that he offers now.
