   I got bored one day as was tidying out the garage and taking a few bits to skip, found some old westcoast interior. so i thought to myself i wonder how hard it actually is to re-trim it yourself.
   
   so took the material off the seat, and drove down to my mums.
   
   me: "mum, can you do a bit of sewing for me"
   
   mum: "yeah sure, what's up"
   
   me: "can you re-trim this car seat for me"
   
   mum "you gotta be kiding me?"
   
   took a bit of persuading but after a cuppa tea, she was off.
   i kinda helped her out a bit but what ya recon?

   Looks like she made a good job of that mate. You could make some money out of this if your mum was willing to do more
