Looks like replacement covers. It also looks like these are not the original seats for this car. The chrome hinge cover sides are not present. Also the side bolsters are not there. The headrests are not as original. The overall shape is not for the 560SL. Maybe from another SL model?

I would guess the frames and headrests were from a 450,and the seat covers
were for a 560.The upholsterer had extra material because the 560 frame has
a bolster.I would bet he took the slack out by stuffing foam in to make a bolster
horizontal.Is that a dash cap?I thought 560 had non glare black

Did as well. I also asked him if it had a dash cap since the drivers side vent surround looked off, I'm not at my car so maybe it's just me or the pictures.
Here is his response;
"Hi, this is the original material on the seats. I am not sure what you mean about the dash but it is also original. If you would like to do a pre-sell inspection please feel free to call and set up an appointment. You can reach me at 423-943-0130. Also, the reserve price is $9500."
I'd say stay away. Who knows what else is hidden/unknown about this car.
