Leather Seats?

Post by Jordan95 »

So I've had my Scirocco a few weeks now a feel that some nice leather seats would really set the car off.

Anyone around here had their seats upgraded to leather after buying?

I've not but a mate did his Golf and they were really easy swap. He used a company online who search scrap yards all over the country and found a set in a crashed car only 1 year old. Leather is definately the way to go because they look great and so easy to keep clean.

To do the job right, it's not just the seats but also the armrest and the door cards that need changed. Also, cars with leather trim tend to have black headlining.

Agreed, plus VW/VAG Leather is not cheap!
