Leather Option
Hi Guys,
The standard fiat dino 2.0 spider seats were mostly vinyl, however I believe there was a leather option...
They are vinyl on my spider, in need of restoration and I am contemplating whether I should do them in leather if it can be done as close to original as possible. I would like to check if anyone has any good pictures of the original leather seats? Also if the leather option was chosen, were other bits, e.g. door covers, dash, middle console etc also using the same leather?
Thank you for any help / pictures on this.

Re: Leather Option
I have never seen any photos of an original leather interior on a Spider, I would love to know if this truly was an option.

Re: Leather Option
I have chassis 0000665. This is red with black interior. I just removed the seat back to confirm( the vegan leather in my Tesla would fool anyone) and they are leather. Nothing else in the interior appear to be leather.
The back seat squab is definitely vinyl as are the door trims.
If I could figure how to post pics, I’d send some of the seats.

Re: Leather Option
Hi Michael,
If only the front seats but nothing else in the interior appears to be leather, would it possibly mean the front seats have been restored to leather after market?...
I saw these type of seats on a number of spider pictures, they look nice (to me), but assume they may not be the original leather version?
You may also email me the pictures of your leather seats at: juleshk@netvigator.com
Thank you and best wishes,

Re: Leather Option
The seats in my 2400Spider are leather, and as far as I can tell are original, unless they were changed very early in it's life!

Re: Leather Option
Having only owned my car for 15+ years, don't think I have any pics of the interior....
Here is a snap from a shoot

Re: Leather Option
That's the full leather option indeed
In case you get to drive her and have a chance, would be great to have a full picture of the seat.
Thanks again and have a sunny, blue sky Dino weekend!

I notice those Seats have headrests. Are these aftermarket seats of a change in later models?
