Good Trimmer in Scotland?

The interior of my chromie is perfect except that the piping on the drivers seat (right hand bolster) is just starting to part company from the bolster (still connected at both ends just a bit in the middle thats come away) which is really annoying me, looks like it only needs reatached which is probabaly quite a simple job for a trimmer. Any good recommendations please?

post a pic...rather than fork out for a trimmer, you could se if anyones just got the bolster section for sale from a seat they broke

maybe see if you can get a new seat top ? put a wanted add for a seat/seat section see if anyone randomly has one,you never know

floor mats look a bit iffy,would look/feel much nicer with £40 spent on -

I've had Colin Stewart in Crossgates do some piping for me on a leather sports seat and he did a good job. My folks have used him for other leather work and he's good.

He's a nice lad to deal with also.

No probs, you can return the favour by bringing your car along to our next Scottish meet. :wink:

I'll be heading up a convoy leaving from the Cinema at Halbeath.
