Where are you from? What sort of bucket seats are they and what colour are they? I was going to go for leatherette seat covers for mine but if your bucket seats are nice and in good nick I might be interested. Might even swap you for the standard ones if that suits you. It would all depend on the colour of the bucket seats, I'd want either black and silver or plain black. Got any pics?

The lower parts are a little tight, so may not be to everyones liking, but I liked them when I get used to it.

Didn't realise they were out of Toms old car, I know them as I've seen them before. One other question, are the adjustable? Not too bothered with adjusting the height of the seat just the back reclining and I'd deffo be interested.

How much would you be looking for the seats? I would be up for a swapping mine, they are the same colour as the rear seats in yours judging by the pics Tom put up. They are in great condition with no tears or burns etc and also very clean. My sis's fella has a wet dry cleaner and they have been cleaned since I got the car, I could do it again before any swap took place to have them spotless for you. I'm in Dublin so it would be a bit of a trek up/down for one of us but it would probably be best to do it outside one of our houses to make changing them easier.
Let me know if you want to swap. Or if you sort them somewhere else let me know how much you want for the seats.
Cheers.
