Title: Recaro Seats Cleaned and repaired
Post by: CMD on 08 November 2011, 18:37

Set about repairing and Cleaning Leather Recaros for Polo 6N2 Sow Car.


Both of the front Seat's had damage to the plastic side panel trims & Pocket trims.

So after tracking down some good 2nd hand trim panel's over the past few months it was time to replace the damaged items.

Very Pleased with the final results being that the leather is over 14 years old. Once cleaned we fitted some new plastic guides.
