£100 is not bad seeing as it cost me about £60 to do mine!

Get some pictures up of the leather, really want to see how that has turned out!  :cool:

Sooo i finally decided on what seats i want up front.
All the leather is done and ready to go in,the door cards will be complete once i nip to Kirton today to pick up a spare set of cards so i can rob the rear speaker grills and tweeters for mine.
While im swapping it all out im whipping the headliner out and taking it to a retrimmer in Sleaford.
Been silly busy fixin g other peoples cars recently,as well as playing about with her mk4 so i shall be back on Potter as of next week.

Picked these up from Sheffield yesterday(generic pics but mine are in better nick)





However from factory they come with full electrics on the drivers side and just manual and heated on the passenger side.
I will fab up some new subframes at work once ive got some measurements and then i will get to work figuring out the wiring.
I was sat in them most of the night in front of the tv(much to the missus annoyance) and theyre really comfy!

Pretty sexy looking too  :cool:

Nice! I reckon you need to colour code or black out the plastics though.......... Will be good to see these puppies in :)
