    I got my front seats re-done with Nolan Autocare a few months ago. They're not cheap, but they do excellent work. No problem recommending them.

    Any idea of a rough cost of getting the seats of a MK5 golf gti reupholstered in leather?

    Another option for you is to keep an eye on ebay uk, complete leather interiors come up for sale fairly often.

    Yes, had a look lately and found very little tho.
    Btw this is just for curiosity reasons,
    Just so I have a rough idea of cost.
    I'd imagine it's expensive!

    I've seen some work by these guys and it's really good.

    From talking to people who have used them their prices are good too, 800 for a full interior less door cards is what I was told a while back.

    The fact that they're upgrade seats might make it hard to get an off the shelf solution. An upholsterer could replace sections of the original seat for you alright but it doesn't come cheap

    So would these companies have ready made solutions for common seats then colm?

    Yeah, they order them in from Pakistan or china or somewhere.

    Oh I see. I emailed them but they never responded...
    Does anyone know roughly, how much it would cost for a golf? Just standard golf style leather?
