Got my seats back today - woohoo!
I went to collect my seats today from Auto Interiors, Leicestershire. What a long drive that was - the M25 was doing its usual impression of a giant
car park in BOTH directions and my aircon in the tin top decided to blast out HOT air instead of cold.
Anyway, to say that I am pleased with them would be a huge understatement - they are bloomin gorgeous! Blue Alcantara with lighter blue stitching and
a silver Aeon logo - plus an inflatable lumbar support for my poor old back.
The pics don't really do them justice but here's one anyway .....

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Did they make provision from the kidney you had to sell to pay for them?
Only jealous  - nice job.

It was both kidneys and a spleen actually
I still shudder when I think of the go-faster goodies I could have bought with the money - but they really do look the business.

Yum!
Have bought the sewing machine now - so we're committed to having a go at least!
Were going to do leather / vinyl , but yours look so good are now reconsidering alcantara...
Where did you get yours in the end?

I got another 2 metres of Alcantara from the same company - Auto Interiors, as I am going to trim my dash and make some gaiters for the handbrake
& gear lever.
I must say that I would have definitely struggled to get the seats to this standard, but I reckon a decent sewing machine would have no trouble with
the stitching (although the operator might )
