the cloth i used is 32 years old i got it off evilbay. but you can buy new cloth from mj and VW that is almost the same they use it on the new mk5 gti. if you go on VWs website and look at the options for the new gti it will show u a swatch sample. To have the same work done as i have but useing the new cloth it was about an extra ?200. thats VW for you expensive expensive :)

Very nice mate, Im jealous.  Trying to save up the money to have the car painted, once Im finished with the bodywork.
Once the car is done the seats will be next.

First Golf, lots of work. I've started so I'll finish!
