I read a previous article regarding seat identification and I believe I have narrowed this one down to a late 356C or early 911/912 because of the smooth recliner and plastic cover. It was mentioned that the 911 and 356 had different track widths. Does anyone know what the dimensions are, or can someone identify this seat at a glance as a 356 or 911? I'm cleaning the garage and would like to place it in a new home.
Thanks
Doug

I'm voting 911 seat. I've spent a lot of quality time with my T6 C seats and they are flat on the bottom pan. The 911/912 seats had that deeply angled bottom.

I didn't see the post with the dimensions when I did a search.

Doug, you probably searched directly through our site. As much as I hate to complain about anything that volunteers do, the search feature on our site is not very good. I simply did a Google search "356 seat versus early 911 seat" and the post on our site was the first item in the search. It's usually best to use Google to search things on our site.
