What material are you looking for will bearing on how much it costs.

Standard 'GTI' cloth is available but other cloth is now becoming harder to source. 

Stick a photo up of what you're looking for. 

Hi

Picture attached I have had 2 retrimmers respond saying they can't match it frustrating

There are vinyls. that you can probably use, but then you would need to do all 6 bolsters on the Fronts, and rear if you wanted them to match that is after you either repair or buy new bolster foam.

In the Archive section, I have a how-do-i-do-thats in repairing your bolsters, and such.  But as I had an all white interior in my cabby and I was tired of it, the foam deteriorated, and well I replaced it with a Pleather cover I bought from Germany but I can't find the dealer that I bought them from on EBAY.

Just make sure that you use a wire wrapping over the side bolsters rod prior to installing or repairing the bolster foams.  similar to:

Thanks for this mate very helpful

Where do I find the archive section ?
