The texture and the shade of yellow would probably be not the same ?

I wonder if there's any Porsche enthusiast re-upholstery shop that can duplicate the finish (fabricating or re-dying the existing ones)

I am sure there are members out there that want these in other colors like Yellow,Green and blue to name few...

Most places will match the color or tell them they own it. I would bring the color in and say go. If they cant get it right then dont pay. Most solid car upholstery shops can access most of the stock colors.

Do you have yellow seat belts? If so you can have the shop use them as reference when color matching.

I know there was a posting here that a company would change your seat belt fabric to any color you wanted. You just sent them your old set and the would replace just the belts and use all you old hardware. Might do a quick search here.

I am interested in this also as my seat belts are being converted to yellow and would like yellow straps on the door, not red....

Any info would be great!!

Assume you haven't seen the ones being sold via Facebook? Not a full door strap conversion but gets you the look for much cheaper. I recall him only having red and silver but maybe he has yellow now too. The guy's name is Stewart Settles. I didn't buy but it appears like quite a few have.
