Car upholsterer?

Featured Replies

I know there are quite a lot of these places but would like to find the best one I can.

 

I would best like to re-do just the cloth driver seat for my 1999 Vitara.....the others are in excellent condition just need a clean. The driver seat has a v slight sag and I'd like it firmed up too.

This leaves me with a bit of an aesthetics problem.

The seats now are a greyish pattern and look well.

What I don't want to do is try to match the cloth with something not quite the same.

I think it would look cheap and Id rather have a radical difference for the one seat......In a cool country a sheepskin effect would do, but can't think what to use here.

Maybe a nagahide type ........but would it get sweaty? Don't like seat covers.

 

So I live south of CM a half hour near the river.....I come in every day and anywhere between the Hang DOng Road and Old Lampoon road would be convenient.

In fact I remember someone long ago telling me the best place is on or near the latter road.

Obviously  good choice of materials is v important, the more the better.

 

Thanks v much

Sticky, but if we have A/C could be OK...

In LOS I would not have leather, back home my car had leather and the few times it was hot there the seats were a pain..

Agree.

I have reservations about covers.
The missus has a couple that slide around way too much.
I have come across well fitting sheepskin ones though.

I should say the AC ain’t great in the Vitara.
Just takes the worst off.
I was told the compressor wasn’t working 100% some years ago.
If I’m really going to bring this car up it’s something I should do properly.in fact Joe at Denso in CR said he could fit a different system altogether which would be way better.

If you can find a garage that does classic car restoration in the area, they should be able to recommend an upholsterer.
