Wanted grey leather drivers side seat

In desperate need of a drivers side seat as the bolster is now beyond repair and also need a new sump as my car is still off the road with a hole in the sump

You'll probably have to go for a full interior, I don't think anyone will sell just a drivers seat unless you try a scrapy.

As for your sump PM Wheely, he had a sump repaired, I didn't think it was possible but it is!

I wouldnt mind a full black leather interior and i'll ask about the sump. Cheers

How much does it cost to have it re-upholstered? I imagine you could replace the broken sections of leather with medium effort. That's a guess though, I've only seen it done on TV when they were restoring an old Jag (the program is called 'A car is reborn' on Discovery Turbo)

Hey this weekend i should have a post up that may help you if you got time. i got some seats from Chef couple weeks ago. tan even thou i had gray interior, and basicly took the passanger seat which was in perfect condition and rebuild it onto the driver frame. took about 3-4 hours (prob cause i didnt know what i was doing) but its a nice fit, that may be another option for you.

Let us know when the post is up Brendon.

I have the Grey Connelly and my drivers seat isn't bad but If I swapped it with the passenges seat both would last that much longer.

Nice job Brendon, you've got me thinking now.

I would be swapping driver for passenger seat and visa versa, so I would have to consider how to fit the passenger seat tilt mechanism to the drivers seat.

Worth thinking about though.

I got quoted £120 to repair the seat which i thought was daylight robbery to be honest, and i would prefer the black leather interior anyway so dont really wanna pay that just for the seat to be repaired
