Thanks for the plug, Scorpio 
If you want something a little more affordable, I have some really nice pre-made covers that Bob gave to me. They're not his brand, but they are very nice, top quality seat covers. One is all black, and the other is black with red inserts. I need to take photos and put them up, but price-wise, they're $495 for a pair vs. the $850 for the Classic 9 hand-stitched covers. Let me know if these would be of interest.

No doubt! You'd be lucky to get generic plastic seat covers from Walmart for $25...

Might be worth shopping around at local upholstery shops. Paid $400 (less in US$) for a professional job in marine grade (UV resistant) velour, custom made and fitted. Another guy quoted $1200 as he identified them as 911 seats.
Did you also get your seats done in Fiji Scorp? |

Search US ebay "porsche 924 seat covers", came up with a few under $200 US.
They are seat covers and not upholstery replacements, I did see some replacements for around $250, but can't find them anymore,
and I'm just living with my duct-tape covers for now  .

no, they were one of the few great things that came with the car when i bought her, a tan leather with red centre...i just need to use some VHT vinyl dye on the whole interior to get everything matching beautifully
