Jogging seats

This goes mainly to members living in France or visiting French scrapyards. I am looking for front seats for my Jogging. Upholstery does not need to be perfect, and I have no problem if it is partially or completely missing.
Ideally I need a pair but a single seat frame would be useful too, to use it as a model to make the second frame from scratch.
 
can we have a picture of the seats ie pattern, maybe same as other models ? I do have a pair of beige front seats from a 1982 R4gtl if that's of interest to you
 
No other Renault seats match them, unfortunately.

They may had been based on early R12 Gordini seats, but I guess they should be scarcer than Jogging ones!

Angel, look at Parts for Sale last year, Oct 19th. Jan de Ruiter had some stuff for sale. There are quite a few photos but the 7th photo shows some sort of seat. It might be what you're looking for
 
This the rear seat of base R4, and also Jogging. I had found such a seat immediately after I bought the car, in 2003. Thanks anyway for the hint!

Take a look here http://www.renault4.co.uk/forum/threads/jogging.2865/#post-15099 where I described what was going on with the seats. The 2CV derived front seats I built were stunning to look at, and also very comfortable to sit on, but when I fitted them on the car I realized I had forgotten something basic: 2CV seats are mounted directly on the floor, unlike ours that sit on top of the chassis crossmember. So guess what...driving was only possible with the sunroof open!
