I was just wondering where are you guys/girls going to get a good quality material for reupholstering your seats and getting it installed reasonably on the West coast. Due to prices I’ve found on Ebay and 914 Rubber, Auto Atlanta, World Upholstery, Auto International etc. I’m kinda forced to stick to using the original style vinyl vs leather fabric. Also Carpet kits etc., along with repalcement dashes or covers? Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

You might also want to look at Lakewell.com in Euro for the 914 upholstery kits & 914 carpet kits. Their carpet sets are better than most of the others, except those with a good quality German (Domestic is less costly, but won't last as long - maybe 1-2 years on most Domestic carpet).
Fortunately for you, Black is the easiest interior to source material/carpet for a redo. You can also look at a quality local upholstery shop & supply either the kit or materials for them to do it for you, if AI or others are too pricey. The good leatherette vinyl is more durable in most cases than the leather, & IIRC you couldn't get leather even as an upgrade on a 73 914-2.0 anyway - so don't feel left out.
