Looking to buy Recaro sport seats for a 1975 Carrera. I currently have some; however they have the wrong tilt release mechanism. Mind have a lever/hook and I'm looking for the version that has a round knob. I don't know if this is a situation where the part can simply be swapped but I haven't found anywhere that sells the appropriate hardware either. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Think you car swap the hook with the round.
Maybe a vw part. There was a reference to this on a lime green 2.7mfi resto thread on the impact bumpers site years back in early carrera section.

Thanks-I think I found the part: https://www.ebay.com/itm/114254274181
Moved to Other. Good luck with your search.

That's not the right part... it doesn't have the grooves cut for the surround...Originally Posted by jfcowell
The correct part number is PCG88163300 - it is available at the bird or other Porsche places
first ride - 10 yrs old in a 73 911S - Silver - I was done for
Started 'playing' with them in the late 80s
Started racing a 72 911 T built to 2.9L RSR in SoCal SCCA, PCA, POC early 90s
Have owned over 50 long hoods from late 80s until 2000

Thanks, that's really helpful!
You're welcome! I needed them for my 1974 2.7 Carrera, and it took a while to find them as the original part number is a VW part number and is NLA...

Is that your Birch Green Carrera? So funny, because if so, here's mine:

Yep... a USA 1974 early 2.7, that I am making into a 2.7 MFI... In LichtGrun - code 253
Yours looks great! I wonder how many lichtgrun colour code 253 carreras there are?
Here is mine in almost the same angle...
