   Right i was lookin into getting some GTI Leathers but they would probably need a retrim,
   
   so instead of paying laods of money got GTI leathers then a retrim surely gettin some free saxo seats and having them retrimmed in leather is the same thing yea???

   I think retrimming saxo interior in leather costs about 600 -700 at least thats what people have paid on here

   if you can mate, try and get some vtr or vts seats, they are shaped differently to other saxo seats - they hold you in and support you better. also, lics ltd do one-colour retrims for around £170 for saxo front seats and rear bench but they are in kent...bit of trek from bristol though lol

    get the cloth gti seats to retrim. have different shape side bolsters to saxo ones. look better imo or instead of spending £5-600 why not just get decent enough gti seats for like 250-300
