Anybody know where to find seat covers..........

Post by boincuk »

I have one of these:

The front seats are blue with a white FTO logo on them. The drivers one is now getting pretty worn and I am looking for some new ones - but they seem to be like gold dust. Am member of the UK FTOOC, but nobody there can help - can anybody in here ?

my version R has the same seats mate. Never seen replacements but maybe try some local upholsterers (spelling?) and try to get a fabric match and they should surely be able to replacate the FTO logo (it's just embriodery) I've seend tons of show cars down similarly so it shouldn't be too hard. Cost may be the only factor.

I'll be up for this myself in another year or two, thinking I'll get the sits remoulded a little at the same time as some of the foam is out of shape.

Let us all know how you get on in any case please Mike,
