My new base was £78, which is a lot of money but I wanted to sort it before the leather got marked.

With recaro's I think they are in parts. I remember the dealer saying they only need the side bit.

But this was free of charge on top of the car cost when buying so I have no clue if its multiple parts or single, let alone the price  :undecided:
