Thanks nearly......however, with the herringbone trim insert, from what easterns told me, was a denim-like cloth in one colour that had a herring bone weave to it. but I must say, the aztec like in mty van, has got a few experts stumped

mckackie,
When I looked at your pics the other week I just assumed that the seats were a custom thing. Can you post up a close up picture of the insert. I would really like to see it.
If you want them redone like original, maybe the blue part could be screen printed over a base material as best as you can match. Then you could get an embroider to reproduce the strip zigzag pattern over the top. They can do this with just a JPG file.
I have logos embroided onto business shirts and all they wanted was a .jpg file that was made with a picture progam. From what I know the computer takes over from there and drives the sewing machine. It can get quite good detail.
All up it would be a challenge but worth it because it is so different. The next problem would be convincing the arm chair experts that it was original.

Some close up photos of the trim would be great as a comparison.
Same here please Jennie. I only emailed Winning products yesterday to get prices etc. I had been told about a crew in Melbourne but couldn't find out who they were. No body could seem to remember. I'm gathering that is Eastern Auto Upholstery. So I'd like to know the quality too please.
Also does anyone know if they do the Arm Wrest, or if not who???

Good to hear he's lifted his game, Last time I dealt with him was probably 8 or 9 years ago and at that time, other than an SA mob he seemed to be the only one doing anything close to quality factory trims. I ended up driving to Melbourne as I'd paid upfront (only way he'd do them) and I hadnt been able to contact him for weeks.
Turned out he was just flat out at the back of the shop and dealing with huge demand. Perhaps the number of extra companies doing the trims has freed him up but I certainly use his work again wait or apparently now, no wait.
