Josh Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Not bad for a cheap, quick fix. Unless you knew, you wouldn't really notice it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Looks ok, but for the time and effort I think I would just get the seats recovered. The leather is still looking very worn as the seats are old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greeksuprakent Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 To find some decent replacements seats ... no always so easy and they cost about £100 the pair in the cheapest option. Replacing the leather ... the cheapest quote I had was £350 ... However it is the pleasure of fixing something that I love the most and it was done in a day all in all.

jackso11 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Yeah there is a company on ebay that makes new covers in leather, you are about right on the price though. Their fake leather is about £200, real leather being £350-400. I want to do mine, but have other bills at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 yeah 2 front seats cost me about £400, but final bill was £2600 once i had finished with new carpets ect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
