Pierre Gillet Posted June 11, 2000 Share Posted June 11, 2000 The back of the driver seat of my 1.6K ( 22 000 km)is in bad condition. The rigid black plastic is broken allowing the foam to be seen.I plan to consolidate it with black "Duck tape" until I find somebody to fix it , I figure may be with black leather. Has anyone experienced a similar problem? Note that the driver is light: 54 kg since it is my wife most of the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben_S Posted June 12, 2000 Share Posted June 12, 2000 I've just recently found this problem on my two year old car. Admittedly I weigh more than your wife, but still not very impressive for such a new car. I was going to get in contact with Caterham, but dont fancy my chances of them being very helpful. They can't expect you to replace the seats every two years though can they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Ingram Posted June 12, 2000 Share Posted June 12, 2000 If you contact Oxtead Trimming they will sell you a replacement set of plastic supports(x2 for the cushions and x2 for the seat backs)for DIY, Otherwise good luck with Caterham (seat repairs £50.00-£75.00 in my experience mad.gif). jringram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre Gillet Posted June 21, 2000 Author Share Posted June 21, 2000 Jon, again thank you very much for your help. I had not been able to find their address, may be also because, I realize now, I mispelled the name of the company! Cheers, Pierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
