plumster Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 When you say "insitu" do you want it done while still on the seat frame or even still in the car? Very unlikely, you really need to strip the cover from the frame, otherwise any repair will look like sh*t. I know a good trimmer in Accrington, there is also a good guy in Preston, only had dealings with Trevor Stokes in Accrington personally though. Let me know if you want to contact either of them.

Shug Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 With the seat out the car turn it upside down. The fabric has a metal rod running through it that is hooked over tags in the seat frame. Just bend the tags back slightly and pull the metal rod off. Theres another one that is attached under the seat cushion as well. It'll be obvious once you see it.

dog321fish Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 Thanks Shug, when I take it off the road in Oct/Nov I may give it a go, I like driving it too much to do it now ! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
