Its been done in stages so not at at the same time (luckily!!) The Top Gaiters stuff you can get off ebay. As for the DtT stuff, you're probably best getting a quote directly from him for the work you want doing

I have been speaking with Dave regarding seats. His vxr styles ones are sorely tempting but well over half the cost of the new interior. Was thinking about getting the originals recovered but wasn't sure how they'd look. As it turns out really rather stunning

Thanks
According to Dave, these are "Probax style" He showed me a picture of an identical seat he had already trimmed and it was stunning so i opted for it. I assume therefore that someone on here has these same style seats.
For what it's worth, the re-trimmed seats cost £550.

So it's not actually the Probax foam padding, just the Probax-style stitching pattern?

There is additional foam padding in there but no idea if it is Probax padding.
It sure is comfy though

Yeah, 10/11/12 year old seat padding definitely loses some of it's support over the years.

Looks like alcantara from the small pic on my phone.

Considering how good that looks and at a 1/3rd of the vxr style seats that's very good.
Glad to hear it is nice and comfy too as at the end of the day that's the thing that really matters.

Me and the missus are driving down to southern Germany in the summer of this year, so the new seats will give us some extra comfort.
The missus is delighted i got rid of the passenger lumbar support. Who on gods earth though that would be comfortable?!?
Thanks for all the positive mesages guys. Mucho appreciated

I hacked that out before last year's Hoon - great mod for passenger comfort and pretty much free except for the cost of a tube of leather glue!
