Mk2 seat base repair
« on: 16 July 2011, 18:15 »
Any recommendations for getting the drivers seat base repaired/replaced?

There's a wee hole in the bolster cloth which is repairable, but as you can see, the foam base has disintegrated a reasonable amount - more than I thought. Part number 357 881 375 A

 I'm guessing the foam bases are no longer available...

Solved - found a brand new seat foam on eBay UK

Bit expensive at £55 but hey!
