Driver's seat wear and tear,, solution??

[Sasha]

Hello,

a common problem on XJS is the driver's seat shoulder/edge wear,, probably due to the difficulty of getting in and out!!

what is the best way to rectify the rips and wear?? not expensive, DIY??

help please!!

well,

due to the nature of the seat, the only real solution is a ' re-trim ' , but a simpler more cost effective solution is to by a complete secondhand seat in the right colour,

there are good ones out there that will look good with a clean and re-colour to get rid of any minor scuffs,

you can always change over the seat bases to , from passenger to drivers etc, but the seat backs are handed and cannot be changed over , unless you don't mind the seat back buttons being on the wrong side,
