hi all currently want to put a calibra leather rear seat into my nova to match my front recaros!!
I have
-calibra rear seat complete
-nova gsi rear (60/40) complete
-pov spec bottom part of seat

whats the best way to do it? will calibra back 60/40 fit in and i jus wrap the leather round the pov spec base or do i need to wrap the leather 60/40 part round the gsi item?
cheers

you use the nove seat backs i piece rear bench an 60/40 back rests

use the calibra sponge but trim it with a bread so it fits the nove seat frames

ok so i use the nova 60/40 and wrap the calibra leather and foam on to it
and use the pov spec base and wrap the calibra foam and leather onto that

I have done this before it was a pain in the ****, but as long as you take your time it can be done neatly, although you will need to trim the foam on the bottom bench down a little as it can look to puffy and big.

Take your time thou, also might be an idea to use seats you don't mind sacrificing incase it goes balls up and you don't like it lol.

Ive done mint but didnt take enough photos.

You take the leather and the fom off your calibra rear seat and off your nova seat then k it all up because its too big and cut something like 2 inches off either side and a bit off the back then you need to get some cable ties or string and tie the leather around the nova bench really right, thats for the bottom one, the rear piece you just cut it and wrap it around i think, theres a guide on mig ill have a look for you.

Heres mine to also match my leather front recaros.
