Porsche 912 Seat Guide

Porsche 912 Seat Guide

The Porsche 912 story...
The Porsche 912 is a sports car by Porsche AG of Stuttgart, Germany produced for the 1965 through 1969 model years. The 4-cylinder 914 superseded the 912 as Porsche’s entry-level model for the 1970 through 1975 model years.
 
Once you start using your Porsche 912 for fast road and track use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support. On cornering, you may find your self holding onto the steering wheel tighter than usual, tensing your thighs and legs against the central console and/or door card. You’ll probably find your weight shifting in the seat and having to re-position your self after the corner. 
 

None of this is correct. Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported allowing you to focus on the job at hand.

We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our Porsche 912 guideThe resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.
