It is a simple design. Any local auto trimmer can do it.
Or get the pro seat covers off eBay..

No probs, but you may want to call ...
It has been reported as of late, that Max is not really answering emails too frequently. On the positive side, I have my in-laws coming from OS, so I should be able to start up the process of having covers made for the FTO ... Again ...

Re: reupholster car seats
I would have to get your covers off the Pajero so I can copy them ..
But yeah, in-laws will be here for 3 months.. So they wont be able to have them made up till after then.. So will be a while...
I got close, and had a prototype made up, but they didn't have the catch points so they could be pinned down in the seat. Which was really frustrating... But, what can you do..

Re: reupholster car seats
sorry for not replying that price included seat covers front and back, door cards front and the 2 panels in the back, and he said that he could do this style for me without a problem.

Re: reupholster car seats
Is that price still for that style?
Am guessing u have to supply the parts for that price.
Otherwise I would do mine in a flash if that is the price.
Do u know how much the leather seat covers cost n to get them done to yhe seats
