koenig KS914 is the seat specifically made to fit the 914 backpad. that's a nice looking seat, but nearly the same price of the vintage seats.

hasn't someone (B r a d?) mentioned that the renegade seats are weak and will break down with use? I think the vintage seats are not a bad deal compared to what the renegades cost.

The vintageseats.com prices are not really that astronomical for a high-end product IMHO.

A set of early 911 factory recaro sport seats is in the $3000 ballpark, at least when covered in "correct" leather and in perfect condition. Even terribly battered "cores" sell easily for $400-600 each.

And top quality aftermarket race seats are $600 on up these days.

I guess it's all relative. Seats are both a comfort and SAFETY item so strength and quality construction are very important.

Sean Yes the Corbeau is the only one that won't fit into the backpad. The rest work perfect.
Thanks Duck.

Beware the Konig seats are very tight in the butt.
I have a 32" waist and ended up selling them because they were uncomfortable.
Before buying any seat I would sit in it first.
Preferably in a 914.
