Hi all,

Just thought i would post a pic of the first seat cover that i have put on...


I have decided to redo the headrests as they have not got the silver overstiching down the seams...i think it looks a bit better then the cushion which is still in the original trim.

I also managed to squeeze in an inflatable lumber support for added comfort.

Hello Andy,
I like it very much. please let us know from what car you got this inflatable support from? and how does it work, electric or by pumping a rubber ball? I always have an aching back if I sit in a standard seat for any lenght of time.

Hello Bernd

I got them from a place in Germany!!!...

I shall dig out the address and mail it to you...just one thing though...you will need a hog ring gun or similar to refit the seat cover at the bottom edge...
It works by pumping a rubber ball...i have found it makes it much comfier and with the thicker material i used the seat holds you in place very nicely.
