my interior is seriously lettin down my exterior

Postby Ray_S » Mon Jun 15, 2009 4:33 am

My 95 FTO came with the original seat covers(ugly and riped) original floor mats(hidious) and the biggest disgrace of a steering wheel I've ever seen! I have a new wheel and mats on the way but as the car comes with bucket seats can't find new seat covers. Anybody no where I might get some?

I'm pretty sure Me or Seb has a clean set of seats between us! will contact him and get back to ya. they'd be grey/black pre-facelift GR seats. actually nicer than the multicoloured GPX ones.

yeah, you can get leatherette covers from Ricerocket, as far as I know it's around 300 quid for these. a set of original cloth covers from Mitsubishi run at around 2 grand.

Good choice on the leatherette, I have these in mine. Worthwhile investing a bit of time and patience to get the fit right can look awful when theyr'e loose and baggy around the seams.
