Planted Technology seat brackets for the Porsche 944. Part number SB052-4950.
The suffix places this within the SB052 family, which is one of the wider design families Planted make: Porsche kept a common seat mounting arrangement across the 911, 928, 944, 968, 964 and 993 from 1974 to 1998.
What makes a 944 different from the rest of that list
Front engine, rear transaxle, and close to fifty fifty weight distribution, which is why a 944 handles the way it does and why it has always been the sensible way into Porsche ownership for someone who wants to drive rather than to be seen.
They are also cheap enough to build properly and good enough to be worth it, which is an unusual combination and the main reason these turn up with competition seats.
Practical
Get the carpet up before you spend. A 944 is forty years old and the floors and the areas round the sills are worth a proper look, because a bracket can only feed seat load into sound structure.
Handed, so order twice for a pair. Tell us the seat and we will confirm the combination.
Have you written anything useful for my car?
Yes: Top 5 reclining seat choices for your Porsche 944, including our fitting guide, and Lexus Planted Technology Frames Updated For 2026. Those are written around the same car, from real fittings and customer questions, so they are worth a look before you decide.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Porsche 944. Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Planted frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
