Happy New Year everyone!

OK, after 30 years not surprising the seats are a little shabby (see pic). As yet not come across some Recaro's in grey check (but would certainly be interested, please let me know!!!), so taking them to get re-stuffed and patched up (www.bielawskissheffieldtrimming.co.uk). This I was informed can be done by taking patches from repaired zones, but could be better if had some small pieces of replacement cloth. Can anyone assist please?

Keep the tractor running.

Cheers,

Stewart

Blimey that's pricey!   There must be cheaper/better/newer options.

I saw another thread that suggested this site... https://westtrading.nl/

Thanks for the responses. have to agree, bit pricey the seat covers (which I would then have to cut up!). The West Trading link was useful, and found previous thread linking this, but also suggesting need to be 'company' to purchase (http://www.gwagenowners.co.uk/forum/group-buy-rodeo-check-fabric). Plus I'm only after enough to do some patching. At least now know can reference properly...so, don't suppose anybody has any left over "Rodeo check (Merc18598) fabric"? Hey ho.

From the paperwork I have, it looks like the previous owner of my car bought a set of new leather trim in the original style (all seats and door cards) from Btrim in Enfield. 7 years later it still looks great.

I don't know them but it might be worth a call...

Good luck.

Thanks - just viewed their website (http://www.b-trim.co.uk/). Looks very nice, but suspect not within my budget!!! Still use my car as day-to-day kid/dog/horsey stuff general work truck. Not to say they might not have a good deal around...
