It's my birthday at the end of the month and have been told i can have a new interior for the car as it's standard S trim with no leather!
Ideally I would like black as i have black carpet but would consider Cream too.
Im checking eBay daily and am watching a couple of auctions on there but they're all collection only (and are hundreds of miles away from me) or the black set on there will have big holes where the speakers are.
Cash is waiting.

It's in black and its one of the one's i was watching on ebay

do you have contact details? the seats are in bournemouth!!!

£90 postage! The seller is having a laugh (at your expense)
Surely it would be cheaper to drive down and collect the interior? (assuming you have the time...)

284 miles each way (about 5 hours). plus i'd need a hire van which would be £50-£60 for the day.

This is the ebay seller that has overcharged for postage, and sold the Chrome Speaker grills
to rob you of them so he gets an extra £10 ?
He also deliberately pictured the door panels arranged in such a way as to not show the missing grill holes
so you can't complain about them missing as they are shown in the auction ?
Didn't he also sell the Door Marker lights yesterday ?
Personally I'd stay away, bearing in mind my full interior was £50 delivered to London from Liverpool.

It is Wozz, to all three questions!!
I just want black interior and its the only one ive seen on there for ages! Cream would look trashy in a plat ice with black carpet.
cheers trudy, ill probably use him if i find an alternative interior.

winner! Cheers.
At least if his mate drops it in tomorrow earlyish i can start finning it! Either way, ill be removing my back seat after work before it gets too dark.
I'm getting quite excited again after he p!ssed me off this morning.

Jan 25 2008, 11:13 AM
remember rear seat removal/replacement is easier if you have a mate
corsavandal
Jan 25 2008, 11:19 AM
that i have! i'm more worried about removal then not getting the seats!

That write up looks great Jason, i too will need the heater switches so will be leaving that for now, otherwise i'll end up with a tanned hide!

but mine has the lexus logo stitched into the headrests

i should hope it's a Lexus logo and not a Range Rover one

i'll be getting mine done if i ever get hold of the seats

a company on the same estate to us makes corporate clothing so i'll be asking them the do it for me.

mine cost £90 but that was because they have to dismantle the headrest as they cant stitch it with the headrest complete. they then restitched the headrests by hand using the same holes that the thread was in before so they where exactly the same. Thinking of getting the rears done but not too sure????
