xProduct Overview
The Genuine Porsche part 9115218170001C is the original seat backrest button for classic Porsche sports seats, also described as the seat tilt lever knob. Finished in black under colour code 01C, this small moulded button caps the backrest release lever on the side of the sports seat, letting the driver or passenger tilt the backrest forward for rear access or adjustment. It is a mechanical trim button, not an electrical switch. On classic 911, 928, 924, and 944 seats it is one of the most touched interior parts, and one of the first to crack or go missing.
Part Numbers & Reference Codes
OE part number: 9115218170001C, built on base number 91152181700 with colour code 01C for black. In the factory catalogue it appears in the sports seat backrest single parts diagram, listed as Control button. The similar rosette 9115218150001C is a different part, so check the number carefully. Always order and verify by the full 9115218170001C number to receive the correct black backrest button for your seat.
Vehicle Compatibility & Fitment
Catalogue listings show this backrest button on Porsche 911 models from 1978 to 1986, with seat parts listings extending 911 fitment to 1989, on the 928 from 1978 to 1986, on the 924 from 1980 to 1988, and on the 944 from 1982 to 1991, all with the sports seat backrest. Seat type matters more than model alone, as standard and sports seats use different backrest hardware. Share a photo of your seat or your VIN with our parts team before ordering and we will verify 9115218170001C for your car.
These air-cooled era and transaxle era cars are now firmly in classic territory, and their sports seats are often retrimmed during restoration. A retrim can hide a broken or substituted button, so compare your existing button with the catalogue shape before ordering. The genuine button has the correct profile for the lever and the correct black finish to match the other seat trim, which matters on cars where originality supports value.
Key Features & Benefits

Installation Position & Fitment Notes
The button fits on the backrest release lever at the side of the sports seat backrest, where the lever pivots out of the seat frame. It presses onto the lever end and is worked by hand to release the backrest. Before fitting, check the lever itself for wear and confirm the seat is the sports seat type shown in the catalogue diagram, because the standard seat uses different trim. The old button usually pulls or prises off, and the new one pushes firmly home until it seats fully.
If the old button has crumbled, clear every fragment from the lever end and the surrounding rosette before fitting the new one, because trapped pieces stop the button seating fully and can make the release lever feel notchy. Support the lever while pushing the button home so no bending load is put on the pivot.
Product Brand, Type & Condition
Brand: Porsche. Type: mechanical seat backrest release button, also called the seat tilt lever knob, in black. Condition: brand-new genuine OEM part, supplied exactly as the factory produces it.
What’s Included in the Box
This listing includes one (1) Genuine Porsche Seat Backrest Button, OE part number 9115218170001C, in black. Cars normally use one button per seat, so order two if both front seats need attention. The release lever, backrest rosette 9115218150001C, and seat frame parts are separate part numbers and are not included. If your rosette is also cracked or faded, renewing both pieces together gives a consistent finish around the lever, and our team can check stock for the rosette when you order.
Installation Requirements
No special tools or electrical work are needed. Remove any remains of the old button from the lever, align the new button with the lever profile, and push it fully home. Work carefully around aged seat trim and vinyl, which can be brittle on classic cars. After fitting, test the backrest release several times to confirm the button stays seated and the backrest tilts and latches correctly.
Warranty & Returns
This brand-new genuine part is covered against manufacturing defects, and your statutory consumer rights apply in the UAE. If the part arrives damaged or is incorrect due to our error, we will replace or refund it.

Technician's Advisory: This button suits the sports seat backrest only, and catalogue sources vary slightly on the 911 end year (1986 in backrest listings, 1989 in seat trim listings), so confirm the seat type before fitting. The button is mechanical: there is no wiring to connect. Push it fully home on the release lever and test that the backrest tilts and latches correctly.

xFrequently Asked Questions
Yes. The 9115218170001C is a genuine Porsche OE part from the sports seat backrest group, listed in the factory catalogue as the control button for the backrest. The 01C suffix is the Porsche colour code for black. The genuine part gives the correct moulding profile and lever fit, so the button seats firmly and works the release as intended.
No. This is a mechanical button, also called the seat tilt lever knob. It caps the backrest release lever on the sports seat and is worked by hand to tilt the backrest. There are no contacts, wiring, or connectors. An electric seat adjustment switch is a different part, so contact our team if that is what you need.
Catalogue listings show this button on 911 models from 1978 to 1986, with seat listings extending to 1989, on the 928 from 1978 to 1986, the 924 from 1980 to 1988, and the 944 from 1982 to 1991, with sports seats. Seat type matters, so send your VIN or a seat photo and we will verify fitment.
Each front sports seat normally uses one backrest button, fitted on the release lever at the side of the backrest. Most cars therefore need two buttons to renew both front seats, and this listing is for one button. Check both seats before ordering, because buttons are often cracked on one side and missing on the other on classic cars.
This brand-new genuine part is covered against manufacturing defects, and your statutory consumer rights apply in the UAE. If the part arrives damaged or is incorrect due to our error, we will replace or refund it. We recommend confirming your seat type before ordering, so contact us with your VIN or a seat photo if you are unsure about fitment.
