914 seats with the headrest cut down work and look good.
I have the IM reclining seats with headrest but not a fan of how they look and feel.
I picked up Karmann Ghia seats and welded new bases that would fit into the floor pan recess. I also used after market seat rails. I am just in the process of recovering them with new fabrics and seat foams both from TMI.
I have used these a few times and saved quite a bit of money too, you'll need to buy universal seat tracks .
I have a set of fiberglass buckets and I think upholstery (but no padding) from a CMC in black. I can check my stock and get back to you if interested.

I have a pair of 914 seats with hi-backs removed. Have new D handles and complete (with toothed rocker pieces) tilt and slide bases. Have old black OEM upholstery which will need to be replaced. They fit well in even a pan based car and are comfortable (I once had a 914). Located in NW FL.

Much more comfortable and look good when finished properly.
How much are you asking, Greg?
Here's a pair on ebay for $300 - missing just the toothed rocking gear and hinges (both could be fabricated). Can't tell if they have the bases or just the one 1/2 of the slide track (the seat bases could add another $75-100 if not there).

And a rough looking pair for $169

And here's a single for $30.00
If you get that far, Speedster seats can be shipped in a medium wardrobe box used for moving households (available to buy at U-Haul stores). If you're careful, you can ship two (one upside down) in the same box - just drape an old blanket over the bottom one and drop the top one in upside down. The size makes them expensive to ship - say around $150 mid-country, $300 coast-to-coast.
I'd take $200 for the pair I have. Tilt/slide bases with black tilt know and new D slide handles, the toothed rock gear and mounting hinges. Ship from NW FL at your cost - willing to do Grey Hound.
If you still lived in NoVA I'd be sore-tempted to drive down and grab 'em, Greg. But I think I'll just work with the seats that came with the kit.
These are professionally made in Calif - listed on ebay. Assume they have other colors. I'd think for $300 (there's near $60 shipping fee to be added) you have use your old ones as template to have new ones sewn up locally. Same seller had rear seat material too.
