    Someone posted a link to a company that does leather seats a while back, anyone know what it was?

    Do these places do repairs ? I got a set of leathers for my Xantia and the drivers one is predictably worn. Theres a small hole in the leather on the top of the seat base at the side. The seat witches are there and it wears. I'm thinking of gettign a quote to have the base redone but the foam will probably need sorting too. Do they do anything like that or will I have to have a new piece of foam ready to go in?

    Nolan Auto Care in Bluebell is great for this sort of thing.

    Looking to get a replacement drivers seat for my car. The only place that has the same type is McElhinney's in Donegal. Problem is I'm in Cork.

    Anyone know the best courier for delivering? I'd imagine it'd be costly enough. Maybe they deliver themselves, but it was after hours when I rang and was told to ring back in the morning.

    Wondering also what should I expect to pay? Half leather type for a 2005 Saab 9-3.

    Surely it would be cheaper to ship from Dublin to Cork than from Donegal?

    As the guys mentioned above,give Nolan's a shout.

    I'm buying a secondhand one from a scrapyard, and they're the only ones that have that type.

    Nolans do look great for repairs alright. Must look into that more. But then I'd have to ship twice.

    Did you try Traynors?

    Sent them two emails with a picture of the seat. A bit pointless ringing them as there's about 10 different seats for that model, and it's impossible to explain what type over the phone. Heard nothing back. They probably have that type too, as they're huge breakers.

    Looking at some of the repairs Nolan's do and the finished job is like new. Might try and find someone as good around the Cork area.
