captain chaos Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 My '97 Vx needs a new leather seat. Anyone got one sitting (literally!) in their garage after a change to race seats? cash waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Dent Posted July 26, 2002 Share Posted July 26, 2002 PP If you want rid of them and Chaos does not take them, I know of a good home which is in need of leather seats. Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Wong1697456877 Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 Why do you need a new one? If it's broken at the angle, it can be welded and repaired. If the back bit of plastic has given way, a bit of strapping and some cable ties can fix that. I speak from experience..... My seat frame has been welded, the back is reinforced with the excess strapping from a ratchet strap and has many more cable ties than Oxted fitted originally. Ialso have a wooden block behind the seat and it has improved it dramatically. No more sensation of the wheel becoming harder to reach as you accelerate!!
