Where can I buy the plaid or houndstooth seat covers for a 1970 914

I've seen them at 914rubber.com and on ebay.

Ordered my blue plaid seat covers from 914rubber.com on Thanksgiving. Received them a few days later. Still waiting on my auto trim guy to put them in, but they look very nice and high quality.

Not sure if they are still offering them; they are nice and secure in the twisties.

thought they looked familar. just looked on their website and no indication that they are still being produced, but they look like they would be excellend for a/x race support.
i may end up getting stock seats and have a local shop modify and cover , and use the 914 seat inserts i just picked up for the seat and back/headrest surfaces. its either that or spend the$$ for the GTS Classics. i love my stock recovered seats but there is no lateral support.

I got my car back from the trim shop after they installed the 914rubber.com plaid seat covers. Very pleased. I also mounted my new steering wheel last night, so the interior of my 914 had a good day yesterday!

If the original poster isn’t interested I might be as mentioned in PM just sent to you.

The material is available and not too expensive. Just a matter of sewing it up. The Hound's Tooth is much less expensive than the plaid.

What seems to be the going price for an upholstery shop to install the 914rubber plaid covers?
