Title: Front Seat & or Rear
Post by: griffo on February 01, 2004, 11:49:38 PM
Hi, All

I need a front seat for my FE,
As I dont know very much about these things will any
seat match ( apart from colour of course )  or do I need to buy front and back together ?

Griffo.

Griffo,

Since you mentioned the back seat I guess I can presume it's a sedan or wagon!

The material and pattern is a bit different on Specials to all the others, but probably the easiest to find.  (Standards, utes and vans have one-colour seats, with a basic pleated design, whereas Specials have two contrasting panels in the seat upper.)

If you can find one that is in good condition and not really dark colours where yours are light, you should be able to get the vinyl painted up a pretty good match.

Hope that helps,
RET

But is it a Special or a Standard or a Business Sedan?

The Special trim is by far the easiest to find.

cheers

please email me as im very keen on the lot if you have a way of getting them to Hervey Bay QLD cheap.
so we dont get mixed up im talking about your custom made buckets and door trims, with roof lining and carpet, but im also prepared to take the door trims ,carpet and roof lining separite to save on the hassles of posting the seats.

I just realised how ironic that was, I posted to Griffo but accidently wrote Nicko (sorry Griffo) and then you hop on Nicko and are interested "Amazing" looks like they were meant to be yours.
I have a mate who was doing interstate but im 99% sure hes not doing the run anymore ,Shame - he only charged a case for anything he could unload (not forklift off)

Anyone know of someone driving interstate ?

PS would love to show you a pic Nicko but the computer let out a puff of smoke an blew up - too much photoshopping id say hehe, if its fixed sooner rather than later I will get it to you.

that would be fantastic if he could do it cheap to Followmont transports depot in Brisbane or his own depot where Followmont could pick up from.
thanks bud

Nicko give me a call and I will see what I can arrange. Harko will have to get them to sydney most likly as I dont think he goes down that far. and you could get them picked up from my place if that helps or I could drop them off at a depot down here as Dean keeps his truck at home and does not have a depot.

thanks but i will not be able to do anything yet as Griffo's computer must be still out of action as i sent him an email about paying for interior with no responce yet ,hopefully he does'nt sell in the mean time


Title: Re: Front Seat & or Rear
Post by: HARKO on February 08, 2004, 12:43:40 PM
Nicko, No worries mate Im an honest guy and I dont mind holding them for you but hopefully we can speed up the process a little , Im moving house in a weeks time so the goods may become a problem for me plus if I damage them in transit ill be kicking myself .
Id also prefer you to see them first so i have aranged a digital camera and i will follow it up tomorrow hopefully getting some pics up tomorrow night - too many people get stung buying sight unseen and im not exactly keen to be on the other end of an unhappy Nicko hehe over a minor misunderstanding, keep you posted mate, cheers

Post by: nicko on February 08, 2004, 01:00:58 PM
that would be great,my FC was picked up from over Norms way on Thursday and i am hopeing it gets here on Monday or Tuesday,so no rush as im sure it will be a while before car is ready for interior anyway.


Title: Re: Front Seat & or Rear
Post by: HARKO on February 09, 2004, 07:10:59 AM
Heres a pic Nicko i hope your happy with them, I will add that the colour inside a car would obviously be darker without direct sunlight, the door trims dont have trim clips installed and the roof lining (not pictured) has no bows which you can use the factory items, the roof lining is also the same material as the seat inserts. cheers
Have unpacked them now so we need freight fast  ;)
