Leather Seat Covers

    Will be getting a new car and I was wondering if anyone could recommend somewhere that I could get good quality black leather seat covers?

    Willing to spend around 100 quid, maybe a little more if possible?

    Think you might have left a "0" off your budget if you want leather...
    You wouldn't even get fake ones in B&Q for that price:D

    Getting seats recovered with leather will cost upwards of €1,000. Did you forget to add a zero? Look up Nolan Autocare.

    I think the OP means vinyl seat covers, the ones that go over the seats.

    If that's the case, then most decent motor factors will be able to get these easily enough - bigger ones would have them in stock.

    Maybe our OP is just looking for the headrests to be covered :D

    Yep, I've seen them on a few taxi cabs and they look cheap, terrible and out of place imo. Either the real McCoy or nothing imo.

    Yes they serve a purpose in a taxi, etc but I wouldn't want them in my own car.

    Cheers folks, yup I meant the vinyl ones.

    Give 'em a miss would be the advice of most here. They never have the desired effect, especially if it's an everyday car like a focus.

    If it's something a bit special and you want to set it off- get a complete interior from a breakers...

    What is the car?
