90% of dealer parts are now just a fooking p1ss take when it comes to price, I hardly buy anything anymore as its just too expensive. Would rather spend my money having old parts refurbed properly

Loosing light and iPhone camra means poo pics but I think you get the idea.

Gaitor was made by the lad who did the seats. Ollie it was cheaper than the seats he did it foc.

They look amazing. I am like a kid at christams. :cool:

Looking forward to cutting the top of the rear bench mate? Or has he put the holes in anyway?

Cut the roof lining for the rear blind clips yet? :)

Nar no council activity here Lee. Headrest fitting kit and plastic guides are already fitted. We decided to leave the clip off that stops them coming all the way out so I can just slide them in and out as and when.

I thought I might leave the doging blind clips to you next Sunday. :wink:

Thanks guys :D

The company is called COVERALL (PVC & CANVAS) LTD.

There website is down atm. The company mainly Custom canvas banners etc.

They have always done interiors but there isnt always loads of work in this area. So there bread and butter is that stuff.

The lad i know is the son of the owner and he is the one who did my interior. The work is first class imo.

The full interior including front and seats and 4 headrests plus a gear gaitor was £750 which is cheap for the work that went into it.

I have no worries in recomending ther work

I wish all I had to do was get all homo about cleaning it.

You caught your breath mate? All the wax smears off your paint work?

I am off work tomorrow as it's the little ones birthday. Hopefully I may get to mess about a bit at some point winkeye
