Title: Edition 30 seat damage - original cover available?/
Post by: galaxie500 on April 24, 2012, 11:01:59 pm

Hi Gents

Just noticed a small rip/tear in the fabric seat squab of the passenger seat in my Edition 30! Almost definitely the result of giving a work colleague a lift who was wearing a tool belt and something pointy and sharp damaging the seat.  Never again!

Wondering if anyone has ever purchased the lower seat cover and if its still available from the dealers?  I imagine a good trimmer could manage a repair but would my OCD cope with something not original!!??
 I'll try and put up a pic tomorrow.
Cheers.

.
Just give your friendly Parts Manager at your VW dealer a call - He/She will be able to tell you both the part # and the price. It should come as a pre-cut shaped patch, ready to sew in. Hopefully you won't have to buy a full set of seat patches.
