Hi Guys,

Just a quick bit of advice please. My cloth recaro interior is in fab shape, but the drivers side bolster is pretty worn. Luckily I do have a standard seat in the same anthracite cloth which Iâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢m hoping I could salvage the cloth from and get my Recaro repaired.

I mentioned this to Autotrim in Manchester, (the only retrimmer I could find on the net) The bloke was helpful and friendly, but said it would cost in the region of Ԛ£80. If this is a reasonable price, I will pay it, but I thought that was the going price for a leather repair and not a cloth one.

Should I pay the price, or does anyone know anyone in the Manchester area who are good at this kinda stuff, and perhaps cheaper?

Thanks in advance!

Try Yellow Pages (the book not the net). There are some one man trimmers who don't bother with websites.

There used to be a Polish(?) guy in Heywood on Phoenix Industrial Estate who did a top class leather job on my mates Civic. He was getting on in years but he may still be around.
