Anyone recommend somewhere to have interior re-trimmed?

Problem is though there are companies producing complete sets of covers ready made for self fitting.

In leather for £375.00 or £550 fitted includes both fronts an rears and head rests too.

So £520 is a very, very good price for leather plus your getting custom made to your taste not a generic style.

It's the skill, time & experience of the fitter though to get a smooth crease free looking job, that's priceless.

thank you chortle

An estimate for both front seats and the rear bench would be £520 + fabrics, what type of original fabric you thinking of?

From “Anyone recommend somewhere to have interior re-trimmed?”

No disrespect but I got the door cards done as well as the seats for that price!I aint had time to dig out the receipt to let all know who did the job(in the south though, littlehampton) but it was top job done

Ok well that would of been in leather which is a harder fabric to work with, with piping too plus that is inclusive of vat. Ive seen at least 1 person on here pay in the region of £1200 + vat for 2 front seats and a rear bench and i would of also done the door cards inclusive of that price.

And that person would be me.
The thing is, you find a true craftsman, who's work you are thoroughly impressed with - Sharon's Sportline has won best interior at the AGM 3 times !! 
So I had no hesitation in putting the work Classic Car Services way when it came to having mine done.

Ok thats not a problem, as long as the fabric can be sourced which im positive it can be. So would you prefer vinyl instead of leather if you want it as close to original as possible?

No problem at all mate !!
