Seriously...

Having had mine out before, they are not too complicated...

If someone has a knackered one, could they undo all the stitching, lay it out flat and make some sort of template, sketch it and post it on here...

There are loads of places to get leather or any other contrasting material or colour.

It will be a case of buy, cut out, take to a seemstress and bobs your fathers brother....

IMO, It shouldn't be too expensive...??

may well do that this weekend - I could even scan it in so you can all see what the grubby state it's in! Maybe we could have a competition on the filthiest gaiter...

Not more cunning than a cunning fox who won first prize at the annual cunning convention!

Indeed! It is more cunning that a fox with a dregree in cunning from the university of cunning.

I am having one made next week in green leather (along with having the interior re-trimmed). The chap I am using seems very reasonable - and seeing as he has my gaiter he will have a template for yours if you ask him quick.

Try calling Russell at:

Auto Interior
Unit 16 Barton Industrial Estate Faldo Rd Barton-le-Clay
Bedford Bedfordshire
MK45 4RP

Tel: 01582 882688

Say Alex who has his TVR booked in for carpets and re-connolising seats recommended you call.

Hope that helps,
Alex
