Hi there,

Anybody know of any good places where I can have my original black leather front seats re-trimmed with nice leather?

Thanks!

Okay i think manu was correct, a-trim no longer re-trim leather.

Apparently they now specialise in motorcycles, according to the woman who answered the telephone.

Anyway, nice try everyone, will have to keep looking for automotive interior retrimmers.

Did you not ask them if they had any second hand panels left over...? Is worth trying...
