Now that I have made up all the plaids I'm curious as to what the actual color combos are on these. Who actually has plaid? I'm interested to see what these look like on the cars.
I'm really curious to see the lime green plaid. It's close to the yellow, but not.
I'm contemplating putting the lime in my palma metalic green 75.

Mostly wondering if that was an actual combination.

You really need to offer the early passenger seat for us early cars and six owners. I'll offer my passenger seat if you need to start with one. I tooam super curious how these groovy patterns look.

If plaid was correct for my 73 or 74, I'd do it in a second. Looks awesome. Alas, was not offered as original then.

I have obtained a sample early seat set up. Just have a few other irons in the fire to deal with 1st. But it's headway to have a good sample.

Just make up a second set of seats in plaid and slip in the oem for the shows. Switching seats takes 2 minutes and no tools

I am going to redo my 75 interior with the plaid instead of the current incorrect vinyl. Going with the orange or the gray.

This is from my '75.

I have a kit from 914rubber to recover a set for my GT build.

Wish the seat backs came out like the bottoms. Mike, why don't you engineer that?

I love the plaid. Would it be a sin to add it to my black 73 when I redo the interior?

I don't really care if '73 models didn't have it. My car isn't stock and I love the yellow plaid.

Nice pics guys.
Anyone actually have a lime green? I had never see it before. The reg green with Zambezi looks great.
Keep em coming love the plaid

If Magnus wants a set I can hook a brother up! I bet he'd be in.

I wonder if there is any data as to the orders on these other than COAs. I would place a bet that the lime green plaid is probably the rarest. I wonder if anyone even did order it?
