Rough Price for Seat Repairs

Postby Russ. » March 17th, 2008, 6:29 pm

G'day all,

as the title says I'm looking for a rough price on a repair for a leather seat. The leather itself hasn't ripped, its just the stitching coming undone, on an EL Fairmont Ghia

Any thoughts? Suggestions of good places to go would be nice also if you have any, I don't own the car yet, but I'll probably buy it (dependant upon the results of the RACV Inspection)
Cheers.

just look in the yellow pages for an interor trimmer. they would be able to fix that up fairly easily and wouldnt cost that much to fix.

Most trimmer charge around $80ph so base it off that. Id say around $100. Trimmers arent cheap.

if you can, take your seat out and take it to them. I would say $150 max to get that repaired.
