As you probably know, none of them will look oem, as they were all seam welded, most replacements are too 'grainey' and are stitched together, so easy to spot a rogue  if it bothers you, then perhaps look for a complete minty seat? |

Ta guys!
Well Roger wont be fitting it for sure, and I dont think buying a nos seat will happen with about 100quid of post to me... a nos seat cover would be the ticket I guess... I'll start looking :/

Thanks guys, it looks like I need to broaden my search. £60+post is a bit more than I wanted to spend Norbo, think he might take an offer?

Hi,
Does anyone have an old genuine seat cover I can have. It doesn't mater if it's split/knackered.
I want to have a look at the fabric and welding on one. Might have a few ideas!!
Cheers.
