Terry M Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Anybody interested in a swap of 2 x S3 cloth seats in excellent condition with headrest for leather? Would be willing to add cash adjustment, but must be in good condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan c Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 If you want to convert to leather try talking to Oxted Trimming who make the seats as I think they will recover in leather and then they will be like new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry M Posted February 1, 2020 Author Share Posted February 1, 2020 Thanks Alan, that sounds like a good idea, I'll give them a call and see what they have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrightpayne Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I think retrimming will cost hundreds each! A local auto trimmers maybe worth a try?I'm with 7wow - look for a second hand set and sell yours. There is a blue crashed seven being broken on Ebay at the moment with leather seats although their prices are very optimistic (£250 for one second hand AP calliper)!Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry M Posted February 2, 2020 Author Share Posted February 2, 2020 Thanks guys for additional info, certainly worth following up. I.W. can't find crashed 7 on ebay, can you point me in the right direction, ie item title etc? Thanks again for info., much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drumster Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I asked Oxted a few years ago about getting a cloth seat retrimmed in leather. Although it also need some padding repairs as well it was not an economically viable option. Buying a nearly new 2nd hand leather seat and selling my cloth was was a far cheaper option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry M Posted February 2, 2020 Author Share Posted February 2, 2020 Doesn't appear to be any interest in swap as yet. I would be grateful if I could kept in mind if anybody hears of a second hand pair of S3 S type leather seats which might become available, or perhaps you might hear of somebody whom is looking to change to Tillets etc.Many thanksTerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 That's where the race teams / indy dealers come in, many do swap to Tillets... well worth a few phone calls,DPR, McMillan, PT sportscar, S&C, GP sevens, Team LEOS, Kenrick motors, Millwood (Speak toJon Vicker) etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
