I have a set of Scheel seat that I’m contemplating on installing. I’m wondering as I’ve heard the rails are very hard to find. I need to get the seats out storage but thought I’d check here first as to if it’s possible to use the 914 rail or would I need to adopt? Thanks!

You can use stock rails, HOWEVER you may have to redrill the holes in the seat bases. MOST importantly make SURE you have 914 seats. The 911 ones look real close but the angle is WRONG. Take the seat bases out of car to do test fitting, way less hassle to check stuff.

I’ve had them for several years I was thinking the 911 ones were wider (I thought 21”) and had a deferent head rest. Mine in the back of the headrest are similar shape to stock 914. I need to get them home and check the angle on the back. |
