Title: Black vinyl / blue plaid left seat cover
Post by: ADRay on March 29, 2025, 03:53:46 AM
looking for exact back and bottom covers to replace the left front seat on my '82 HL. It's the black vinyl with the blue plaid center.

Cheese louise, is that £447 for a whole set, both fronts? I'd sure hope so!

If you do order from them it's a good idea to get the correct foams too.....the seats are so much more comfy with good foam in them!

Clicking the "read more" under the product description reveal the price is indeed for both front seats.

good to know I can buy new. I'd only seen the baby blue vinyl versions around. idk that I'd pick out this style if I were going with Newton.

To clarify, looking for something used-in-good-shape with the hopes that someone pulled a set from a RHD car.

I've been super happy with Newton as far as quality and service goes. I got a really nice boot board carpet from them for my Elf, and just a while back had them make me a new rear seat back cover. I wanted to get it done in vinyl rather than leather to save a few bucks and since the back seat is literally never going to be used. They gave me exactly what I asked for.

I bought the interior for the Inno from Newton, high quality stuff tho it is a bit spendy. I wouldn't think you'd have much luck finding an interior that isn't in pretty much the same shape as yours, Andy....

I wonder what it would cost to have a local upholstery shop recover those - it's similar to the fabric used on a lot of VW's, someone might have some on hand, or it might be purchasable? They can use the old covers for the pattern.

I only discovered this color seat / door card set a week or two ago - I have dreamed of redoing my interior in oxblood
