Question

Does anyone know of a good trimmer to do my seats. I am thinking of S3 style leather and alcantara.

Scoob/Evo with leather = yuck, no thanks, doesn't suit the car at all (IMO)
Ferrari/Porsche with leather = yes please

Seriously, I'd think twice before having it done. I don't think it's popular on the second hand market, and you may find yourself sliding around in corners.

There's a post at bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/Forum24/HTML/000106.html with pics of leather seats in a Scooby.

Got leather in my Scooby and its great. No sliding and feels and smella great. Just be careful on the colour. i went for slate grey which gives the cabin a grey overload !! Suggest something to contrast the dull grey dash and door panels

Sammy you could try the dealer we were talking about at the Welsh meet. They have a contact that does leather seats, he was recommended to me by the dealer. I guess they'll probably do Alcantara and leather as well.

I'm alright Sammy, how are you?

Been a bit busy at work and the weather was awful when I was free so I haven't been getting about much.
