Looks perfect. I've been looking to find 7th Cav tartan so I can do my seats.

That is the best upholstery job I have ever seen on a set of 914 seats. Everything looks perfectly smooth and tight. Was it a pre-sewn kit or done by a shop?

Job was done by an older guy with lots of experience. First time I saw his 50 year old sewing machine I had my doubts but when I saw his work on others cars .... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
No pre-sewn kit, I bought the vinyl and cloth myself and he did the sewing.. he even added new foam which makes them more firm. Hugh difference.

In winter he will do the dash and the centerconsole.

I just have to find a new adjustment handle
