iambloo Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 i want to retrim my interior in black and white imitation leather... (cos real leather is expensive and harder to work with... it is just a case of taking the seat covers off in one piece and unpicking the stitiching and copying them yeah ? has anyone done this before and how did it turn out ? any problems ? and if anyone knows where i can get the material cheap please pm me cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iambloo Posted October 25, 2004 Author Share Posted October 25, 2004 also interested<{POST_SNAPBACK}> looks to me like they pull off... like they have a wide plastic hook which goes over a bar... held on by the tension in the fabric... will investigate some time !
