Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hey guys my grey front seats the vinyl is shot . So I plan to visit a few local interior restoration shops for some quotes. My interior is grey with a black exterior . I plan to add some red highlights both interior and exterior . So far changed shifter boot to black with red stitching . Plan on red exterior mirrors and some mild red graphics .
She is a 99 C4 and I like the old school look . I think the material linked below is the look I am after for the seat centers . I would do front and back seats . I think it is subtle but stands out enough to break up the sea of grey . The rest of the seats would be grey or black . How do you think it would look ?

you can find lots of shots of GTI with this interior if you google "clark plaid"
VW used some (IMHO) absolutely fantastic fabrics in the 80's - 90's interiors. I approve of your '84 GTi fabric choice.
Recaro Ultraviolet is one of my favorites. Random image from Google. I have these seats in one of my cars; no pictures handy.

Vinyl? Doubtful on the seats, but who knows�I know Porsche did use vinyl on the dash, door cards etc. unless you paid a steep premium for the �full leather� interior. Either way the fabric centers do look nice on the seats. Do post pics when they�re done! 😃👍
There is no option code on the trunk sticker that indicates leather interior . So I assumed vinyl ( maybe incorrectly ) . Did all 1999 standard seats have leather ?
They are all leather. Not Connolly hides, but a bonded leather, at least on the standard seats.
