Is there a decent way of getting cab seats recovered?-Saw a site that did really decent bay window van cab seats but nothing for T3s.....

JK were offering new seats for T25's at Vanfest, nice & comfy but around £800 per pair

Have also seen www.creativetrimmings.com who offer recovering in various vinyls

Get in touch with a car trimmer, about £250 for a pair of front seats.

Thanks for your replies.
Basically I've bought a van and the front 2 seats are tatty.
If I'm going to be spending that sort of money,I'd like to replace them with (similar colour) grey ones preferably with armrests or maybe some Saab seats as these look comfy,but am not sure of how easy the saab route is?

Ps anyone selling some grey seats? :lol:

Not much use when you live in Sheffield though is it!

Best bet is to find some captains seats from a T25 (these have armrests) then get them recovered to your specification.

As Shepster says - cost about £250 to get them covered.

You will end up with a pair of really comfy seats that just slot in with no hassle....

If you cant find anyone local to retrim then drop me a pm and i can put you onto the guy that did mine in Nottingham.....
