Hello there. Im one of (it seems) the very few RRS owners on here who only has a base car...boo hoo hoo ).
... Just a phone integration and metallic paint were on the options list ))
Therefore I have black cloth seats on my new S model.
Does anyone know where LR get their leather seat (kits?) from?
I know a guy whos a good car trimmer but wondered if LR made the seats (leather) themselves or if they bought in from a supplier..and if that supplier would sell outside the trade.

Does anyone know if its a really difficult job to get a leather seat kit?

...or is it all best avoided as it makes a big ole mess!!??

cheers for any help your can give in advance

I would get it from a seat trimmer - you get way more choice in the colour/type of leather

Theres a good seat trimmer in Essex, he's just done my kid brothers BMW for £500 and it looks pretty good, he even changed the door panels, I can try and find out for you if you want? If you dont live on the EDGE, you are taking up too much space!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A trimmer makes much more sense I think... Out of interest, why did you not choose leather as an option on your S? Or did you not have the choice?

...Hi again ...cheers for the replies...
yes NZHereIcum ...if that bloke does have an email or contact address that would be great.
...and to answer the other chap, I didnt have a choice on seat trim. Had to move quickly ...and as there were very few S's in the country that made the sums work, thats what I got what I got )) Had to wait till January for a factory order otherwise.

Cheers all...and thanks for your time ...Kev
