Thank Bozzy, back on track, got the covers back yesterday new bolsters have been sewn in and he did a great job but missed a line of stitching, so the base cover has gone back, hopefully I will be able to get on it at the weekend.

Got the drivers seat built up this morning with new seat belt guide, its now ready to dye, I am hoping to get the blue on this Friday and finish it on Saturday, then I just need to figure out the wiring situation.

The drivers seat is now finished, I'll put some pics on later, I had a spare pair of visors knocking about that I was going to cover with blue leather but decided to paint them instead, I'm really pleased with them and they'll tie in nicely with the rest of the interior

This is impressive as they are made of vynil and not leather, but the result appears excellent on those too!

I used different materials to the seats, they where plastic primed first, base coat and then I used the leather top coats

Couple of pics of the drivers seat, not great as taken with a colleague phone, I'll get some better ones tomorrow

I painted a coat of black on this before I realised my mistake

 

[oldcarman]

Excellent job as I'd expect Sean! JIM
