Would these look 'tacky' on the rear of the seats?

If you had them in CF, you'd have to be 100% sure the curve is right, as there is quite a curve on those seat backs.

I have found the website for the company that made the Tuscan seat backs and emailed them to see if they do ones for T350

hehe

Cheers! One thing I have learned over the past few months is the fact that these cars in particular will fight you all the way - so always expect the worst and expect that, what can go wrong will go wrong...

If and when I ever feel the need for a re-trim in the future, I will give Dave the Trimmer a try....

No, you need to take the bolts out obviously but unlike the newer style Tuscan seat backs, the material of the seat is fixed to the seat back so you would have to strip the seat to remove the backs.

You don't need to take the backs off to put them on, I just had the roof down and moved the seats forward.

You can spray them in place, thats how I did mine but it takes an age to mask them up properly. I looked at wrapping them too but this would need to have been done in two pieces I was told.
