    Hi all,

    Does anyone know of a good place that converts interior of cars to full leather including side panels. I'm looking to convert seats and interior to cream leather and want to know how much it will cost (around). Not in dublin please. only in cork or Limerick (preferably).

    Used to work in a Garage in Cork. Any car that we wanted to get leather put into, we had to send to Dublin. Either CarTronix or AiG Autoglass in Dolphins Barn. Don't know of anyone who does it on a commercial scale in Cork.

    EDIT: Just saw it was for an Alfa, Your cheapest way of getting a leather interior for one would be to get it delivered from the UK and fit yourself, not an difficult job, you ust need a screwdriver and socket set.

    Have alook on www.autolusso.co.uk they have anything you'll ever need for an Alfa and are very reasonable

    Would you have to do any stitching?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,451 ✭✭✭CharlieCroker


    nope, just unbolt the old seats and undo the connections for the airbags and seatbelts and then bolt in the new ones and reconnect everything.
    With the doorcards, you just undo all the screws and then pop on the new one.
    Piece of cake!!!!
    AutoLusso's delivery charges are good too. best thing to do is email them or give em a quick buzz

    Our dealer in Cork transports cars up to Dublin to get leather fitted so I doubt there is anyone down that way doing the job.

    I use www.nolanautocare.ie for anything I need doing. A fantastic job for the full interior (door cards and armrest if you have one) should cost around €2,000 inc. VAT

    I would need something cheaper than 2000eur for leather interior and I found these guys for much cheaper <snip>

    but I live in Dublin so.. how about <snip>, how much they charge for leather seats, doors panels and steering wheel?
