Need tan tartan seats or covers!

Postby RobPue » 07 Mar 2013 02:37

I am in need of a set of tan tartan seat covers or seats. Also the tan tartan door trims. I am hoping to find a better price than Victoria British, or even find used parts in good shape. Can anybody help me?

S&S Preperations in the UK has used parts. I got my tartan red from them a few years back. Contact Rick at:

Not cheap but I think Rimmers still have these. Saw a second hand set at Stonleigh last week. Sorry that's no good to you now!

I am sure those covers were on the Yorkshire Triumphs stand.

Be aware the door trim (door cards) are not the same ones you get from the UK. I got a set for Yellow TCT from Rimmer's sale a couple years back for $40/set (special up to 70% off winter sale). They are like the originals. The set I got for Spider from VB at $200/set are an improved design. The top 1/3 has an stiff aluminum backing to prevent warping near the lock button hole. They also have a removable/replaceable inner waist seal that is clipped on, similar to the outside waist seal.

No experience with seat covers but did see a disturbing set of "not original" material in a TR7 that had disintegrated from UV in a short period of time. Don't know where they came from as the car was in possession of second owner from the installer/owner.
