How much for a new front seat?

ZootHornRollo

Hi,


I won't go in to the details but I need to replace a dog chewed drivers seat in a new shape citroen berlingo van. As the van is very very nearly brand new... less than a month old it is only fair to replace with brand new.


any idea how much a new one is?


Can the cloth be replaced? (not with an ill fitting Halfords cover but replacing the actual original cloth)

New is dealer only and will be eye watering.

get looking for a suitable donor car.
You would be looking at a retrim as another option. not cheap again

If it was mine, i'd get something tailored out of my recently acquired dog skin!

Not sure where you are located but it would be worth talking to A & R Pound in Baldock Herts.

they are coachtrimmers with excellent skills, working on not only classic cars, but modern vehicles too.

When I had my sales business they did all my work.

I'd be trawling Copart and see if they have a real wreck you can pick off.

There arew two trimmers I've used in the past and both have been great:

MarTrim in Middlewich

Cheshire Coach Trimmers in Grappenhall

Look for a local upholstery shop.The type of place that would do your couch in the house.

Have you priced a replacement cover from Citroen? Cover can be replaced as long us the frame/padding underneath are not damaged.

Thanks folks,
New cover from Citroen is around£400.
Just have to bite the bullet and stump up.
There is no damage to the foam so just the cover to replace.
