    Price check for Sport seats like this

    Hi,
    I was on the garage today and I had to arrange some parts. I have some sport seats like these that needs to be recoverd (as obvious). I'm not sure if I should sell them or keep it.
    If so - in what price ranges are these seats?
    Would be great if you have an idea.
    Thanks Alex



    Thanks Yeti

    Yeti, may I ask if they have the adjuster at the front of the seats like the 68 seat or not?

    I think this seat shown on the pic does not have it. Does it make a difference in value?

    If you are interested in a 68 seat let me know - I could have a look
    Thanks Yeti

    Well I have a few buying offers if I want to sell - but still no average price range I don't have those sports seats under my "radar" for years.
    I'm aware that potential buyers want a good (less expensive) price the seller instead a more maximum price.
    Thanks Yeti

    This seems pretty simple, those seats need around $2000 worth
    of upholstery and finished they're worth $5000+. Of course the
    sliding bases make up $1000+ of that value and they don't seem
    to be factory Porsche recaros (with the 'Recaro' label on the seat
    back they must have been sold into the aftermarket.)

    IMHO both seller and buyer should be happy at around $2000-$3000
    depending on whether they have the bases.

    Then again, I may be way off. I'm not a buyer or seller, just
    an observer.

    The bases are half the seat!

    Thanks for your suggestion Andy
    I will check the condition and the details of this seat and my others soon and wil decide what is going on. Btw - I have paid big $ for the Recaro Label because I think it is very cool. So I can easily use it for me if you don' like it.

    @ Willywily - well the truck was just there on Thr. - you have to wait a few days more
    Thanks Yeti
