| Post subject: | New seats |
Im interested in getting some leather sports pack seats from the uk or here if possible. My folks are going to the uk soon so it seems to be a good opportunity if there is a place over there to get them from in or around london so that they can have a look at them before they are shipped. Does anyone know of any places there that do interiors or maybe anywhere in Aus that do it? |

mate, buy the covers from Newton Commercial and fit them yourself, or get a trimmer to fit them here. They will go straight over your foam padding, under your current covers. You can get some MAD leather covers.....cost a heap less than shipping seats too 
They have a website.... http://newtoncomm.co.uk check it out. |

i made a comment to mikey the other night that the tinted windows are great coz they cover up your seats haha wise choice mrcooms, as much as i like those grey cloth seats (mainly because theyre comfy, standard, and feel good) i dont think they suit Cherry Red and Suave Tinted windows |

A friend of mine bought a complete set of leather seats from a Jap import from Brickworx. Contact him maybe. There are so many models of imported Mini seats I don't know how you would go getting covers sent from overseas. You might be better getting a trimmer to make them here. |

get some half backs and trim them with some adding of foam support etc. easiest way IMO. wouldn't cost too much, if it does tell him he's dreaming

being a '93 model, I'm not sure if you could get the older seats legally (which by the way Nuclear Mini is trying to flog his beautiful cobra low backs for cheap cheap) |

Might have to contact Brickworks. Even if i get the sportspack style i can get them leather trimmed cos when i do i will have to do the whole interior, I could probably keep the back seat and just get it recovered in the same leather. Dooke i totally agree with u the gray interior is really bland and the good thing is that dad is on my side so i have a helping hand. I just have to decide wat colour interior to go for, i was thinking either Beige or black, red i think isnt the best option cos it will clash with the exterior. IM not looking at getting the half back i want the later style ones for looks etc as i think it ties in best with the era of my car, not that i dont like the half backs its just they dont suit my car. |

mike how about getting the seats recovered, instead of getting the whole new seat itd be heaps cheaper and easier too |
