Leather Interior Re-Trim??

I have been after leather interior for a while and after seeing the ebay ad would consider sourcing a kit and retrimming my self. I have an a2 sport and the seat bolster has squashed a little so would like to replace at the same time.

The same people on ebay want 550 plus vat for a kit to retrim myself which seems a little pricey?

Many thanks in advance for any help!

Why not let them do the job (it's not easy you know) and then if it's not perfect, you have better redress.

Cheers,

Mike,

the problem is that this particular comapny is too far away really. I would prefer someone else to do it at the right price.

I have had to strip down and rebuild seats before (audi recaros in my a4) so thought would be a job I could attempt!

TBH I have never really looked for a retrim, but with breakers of a2s with leather being hard to come by I would consider this option.

No idea where near me (Wiltshire) that would do it!

There is a guy on several forums - username Porsche Trimmer or similar - he is on the south I think maybe hampshire - cant quite remember now - has done some fantastic work on Beetles. Usually find him on evvo.co.uk / newbeetle.org.uk / oxfordedition.co.uk. He might be able to help.
 
Thanks for the info SK! Found him on one of the forums, will perhaps have to see what he can do.

Struggling to balance the time (and finances!!) between the retro fits on the A4 and A2!

Hoping to fit cruise next, got all the bits just struggling to find the time and decent enough weather at the mo!

In fact - if you do speak to anyone - mention that there's significant interest from several members here (at least 16 on the last count). We might be able to negotiate a bulk discount.

count me in! if I cant secure a car with factory leather a retrim is very attractive if the price is right. be interesting if we can get a bulk discount,and i dont mind travelling
 
Seat Surgeons of York did a top notch job on my A. I'm sure they would be amenable to pricing based on order size:
