Currently have cloth seats in my MK2 but the driver’s side seat is starting to look a little tatty. I am thinking of either buying some leather seats or getting the cloth ones covered in leather. Any advice on where to buy and what I can expect to pay would be much appreciated. I live in the Huddersfield, West Yorkshire area.
Dave, I had the whole of my interior done out in two tone leather by thecartrimmers in Redcar, not so far from you. It cost about £920 but if you want the seats only it would start at around £400. The service was good and they sent samples in the post prior to making an order deposit
I had mine recovered by gary on ebay,i think he is in coventry ,he collected them and returned them within a couple of days finished in two tone,i think they cost about £470.00 incl fitting.
I got my interior from the car trimmers in Redcar was black and yellow seats and door cards. They do a fitting service for around 75 quid and you can sit with a cup of tea and watch some DVDs while they fit them for you. Good quality and good customer service I was more than happy. Their website is www.thecartrimmers.co.uk have lots of photographs on there too. Well worth getting done!
Get yourself on ebay and bag yourslf a set of mk2.5 seats. A massive improvement on mk2 seats. I got mine for £300. They are a direct swop and require no drilling etc.[H]
