right i have located a set of SR front seats locally on the cheap. thing is tho it has the obligatory tear in the drivers side seat bolster :cry:

how easy is this to repair? how much would it cost?

was even thinking of going half leather but this may be a bit out of my budget :? anybody got n e ideas how much this would cost?

ade recoevered his seats easy enough

got a cd of some of his pics where he shows taking them apart

if u no someone handy with a sowing machine all itll cost you is fabric / material cost

and i took the cover off the bottoms of my seats and put them back on again to fit my heated seat padsa

that was the same principle and easy enough

I beleive that seat re-upholstery should be left to the professionals. If you're looking to get it done in leather, you're going to be talking over ?1000 for a decent job.

Could you not but second hand calibra seats or something that would fit for less than a grand? Get the whole car with leather seats for less than a grand!

over a grand to get them done in half leather? :o

i would be able to get the leather no problem been looking on some sites and it isnt as expensive as i first thought .

thing with calibra seats is that the back ones wont fit right and i think the front ones are slightly wider than the nova ones so.... :?

It's not necessarily the materials, but the time it takes to do the work. I might have quoted too much, but the price will vary across the country. Last time I looked at getting a full retrim in leather I was quoted ?2000.
