Upgrade - 2009 Porsche 997/911 Turbo "Going Retro" - Seats Custom Upgrade - PART I

So I decided to "go retro" and reupholstered the seats in my 2009 997/911 Turbo with a tartan design. I love the 70s/80s Porsche interiors and especially the Singer Porsche interiors, with the tweed and plaids. I thought it would be cool to convert mine so I sourced some tartan fabric off ebay and had a local shop reupholster the rear seats while I continued to source some OEM Porsche sport seats.
You'll notice the center sections aren't fulling reupholstered. I used the 997 Porsche Sports Classic as inspiration. I didn't go with a houndstooth design as I thought that was a bit too "common" and was a bit too modern as well.

Where did you get the frond seat cover !

[@rasta997turbo9]

It was online. I don't recall the vendor - it has been 3 years! I just searched "Porsche tartan fabric" or "Tartan fabric" or something similar. Good luck.

Very cool. Beautiful car man and the seats look cool and not over the top. I really enjoy watching what you have upgraded on the car. Keep it up!

​@Don Gillis "Had"??? Man, I hope you still have her! I remember when they came out when I was in high school. Thought that was one of the coolest things I've seen on a car. Dreamt about taking the high school crush to the school dance in the 911 convertible . . . LOL.
I'm really happy with the direction I'm going with these upgrades; not looking for over the top changes. Trying to keep it classy and personal.
Watch out for my Part III for the complete upgrade and I hope you and others enjoyed watching me throughout this journey.

looks good. Who did the seats?

[@rasta997turbo9]

Thanks. They look great in person. The video isn't representative of how awesome they look. I had the seats reupholstered by a local shop and sourced the fabric online.

Very nice upgrade.

Agreed, the big logo in the seat is cheesy, like the subtle Porsche stamp. Had a Anniversary 88 911, had Ferry Porsche's signature stitched embroider in the metalic blue leather headrest, very cool.
