Default Driver seat

Is there anybody up North that repairs S2000 seat side bolsters. I'm in the process of looking at a few adverts and some of the seats have wear where people have slip in/out of the car. The bolster is therefore not in the best of conditions.

Anywhere in the North, or even better, North East?

Anybody got a rough idea of cost?

Thanks!

Nick

you could just switch the base over with the passenger seat. Outside becomes the inside...

Nick I don't know of one specifically, but look around for car restorers or leather repairers. Something like this:

How old are the cars you're looking at? I believe some people have had flattened bolsters replaced under warranty.

1999 / 2000, so I suppose this is well out of warranty!

I'm just waiting to sell my Classic Impreza STI. As soon as that goes I'm seriously looking for an S2000!!!
