Seat fabric / cover

(1/1)

Birchy:
After some thoughts / input if it’s ok to ask here?

I managed to get ahold of a pair of NOS heated seat covers for MK5 GTi front tartan seats. Both base and backrest. I’ve used one of them and have one spare as my passenger seat is in good condition still.

My question is what I should be asking price wise? I can’t find any others online to compare for price. Also how I should describe it to stand out from generic seat covers?

One thing I should mention is that the only difference is that the airbag tag on the backrest will be on the inside of the seat rather than the outside. I’ve included a picture to show what I mean. It doesn’t affect how the cover fits.

Thanks!

I've been told by an upholsterer that the stitching is different (weaker?) on the airbag side compared to the other side so you should state that when selling really.

As above

Definitely good info…I will check the inside of the cover to confirm this.

Thanks!
