Was the "cross brace that the seat aduster is mounted to" ever covered in vinyl by the factory?
When I drove to work this morning, I reached down to grab my beret.. and it occurred to me for the first time that I could see the brace, and it looked ugly. -Rusty |

Yes. I had to take mine out for the POR-15. It
was oily anyway. The really surprising thing to me was that there is a really small piece of vinyl on the left side of the car behind the door and above the engine lid release lever. Mark S. '70 914-6 |

My '75 had some thin vinyl covering both braces. I am going to have to glue it down again as it is always falling off.

My 72 had it not only on the front seat rails, but also a third piece that connected the two together that was glued to the "hump" that cuts across the center tunnel, under the front edge of the arm rest/tray between the seats. The grain didn't really match anything else in the car, but I am 100% sure it was factory.

My 76 has just painted black, the 70 had the vinyl trim there on the rusty braces.

Yeah, I can relate. I got my car in pieces, too.
