Title: Leather transplant
Post by: bodgeandlegit on 12 April 2009, 19:03

I was looking on ebay and found some pretty tidy vr6 leather interiors and was tempted to get one for mine. I`ve no problem with fitting it but the only question I have is does the car already have the wiring for the heated seats tucked away anywhere, or would it have to be added (I have a vr with the cloth interior so would imagine the wiring looms to be pretty similar)??

Anybody else tackled this??

You'd need to take the heated seat loom and switch out of the donor car. Buying them afterwards isn't cheap!

yeah, best to get it out of the donor car.

I know someone selling a full red colour concept interior with door cards for a 5 door complete with loom and heated switches - its in really good condition and is £450
