Pm giles (clio_GB) he restitched some 172 seats, alternativly pm gibson and boyne, and i'm sure they're be able to help/give advice

its not too hard to pull off the bottom part of the cushion

 

[Giles]

I'm here

 

[GarethM]

how much would it cost me giles??

 

[Giles]

you mean bottom arm bit on the side??

 

[GarethM]

yeah thats the one giles
no padding left at all

 

[Giles]

ah you need botton pad and get them from scrapyard of from any sport clio. It got to be 16v, S, Si or RSi with sport seats. Other way to do it is cut some bits out of the new pad and put it on the 172 seat where the hole are with some strong black tape to hole on.

hope you understand what I mean

 

[GarethM]
