dave ,
you might want to check out a couple of british suppliers. john skinner:
leather @ 581.00; vinyl @ 241.00 or prestige; leather @389. to 414.00 or
vinyl @ 194.0 to 215.95. Plus shipping. another source is newton
commercial. both skinner & newton are british heritage approved; & of
course the big three
I think your best off ordering from people who specialize in these cars.
then you know everything is going to fit.
i haven't ordered from either as yet, but have heard good comments about
skinner, i haven't seen any comments on prestige seats but the comments on
their rugs & tops was good. i am trying to decide on new rugs; i want a
change from black.
I installed new foam in my seats last year which required taking them apart.
It really wasn't that big a deal. Directions are in the haynes manual ;or
victoria british has a very good interior guide which is free.
regards
al salvatore
