hi all, im having my interior done and want ideas as its becomming a real pain in the RS, i have the raven black as standard and to be honest its not that bad but its to far gone crack wise for liquid leather to save it. i was thinking about retrimming it black with red stiching ?? or a dark grey then i had the idea of cream or white and to throw more choices into it i was looking on recaros website and seen a seat which they have that would look lovely in the escos and id just trim the rears to match... dont know what to do any pics of your retrimmed interiors please.
Patrick, whats the seats youve found on the Recaro site mate?
Jan, looking good pal
its called the recaro specialist mate looks like a genuine ford seat in ways, only trouble is they are 419 green queens each
Jan that suits your car perfectly, didnt think about the fixed back option yet.....
Neil your leather is lush and crack free, strip it out and cage it and sell me your leather

it is pretty good but not perfect.i have thought about stripping,big hoops and a good cage but i dont want to regret it and hate the car.i like the way it is at the mo,so im a bit nervy.
my back seat looks like it hasnt been sat in,its lovely

Ł419 for a reclining seat isnt that bad... I think my Momos were about Ł400 each. Its acutally much better to drive as well, not sliding out of the crappy standard Recaros
Leather looks ok when its in good condition, but I think its more for the luxury cars, which a old Ford Escort with a big spoiler on it never will be...
Patrick, thats not bad mate, my seats are Ł1532 each
ill have a peek at the seats you reffer to in a short while, quick snack time for me.
and heres me crying over 419 crikey 1532 ive just spat my tea all over the screen now
ive set myself abit of a budget for the winters work as the import tax i had to pay took up most of my spare loot, and i have to put a cap on spending after this winter, it cant continue i know its the joys of ownership and a bug but fook me when will it end... NEVER
Neil your car is crying out for buckets and a cage IMO me old mucker only joking fella but if you to decide to i want first dibs on the leather
They are though, in my opinion I much prefer the ones in the 3 door...
Your car would look great with a matching red/black interior though
tbh mate i love the black and red hex cloth.it would look lovely.did think f putting it in mine.
and i think when mine was bought from ford i think it may of came out with cloth in it,possibly
R5COS,dont know if i'd sell it if it did come out as it is really quite good.hard to get and its a fortune nowdays for good leather
tell me about it mate ive been on to everyone i know of with no joy and to be honest a retrim or seat change would work out better in the long run plus id sell my seats on to have money comming back in... import export and all that
neill will i be getting a pm by the end of the night
im gonna look into a dealer for recaro for ireland and try and see them specialist seats in the flesh

lol,doubt it.it will take lots of consideration matey.im not normally a leather fan.liked my saff cloth.but the escy leather is really quite good.
You know it makes sense Bullet,I think the ford leather is shite,if I had ended up with a leather`d one I`d have had it retrimmed in black nappa with red stiching before I done owt with the car.
i do really like the "blockbuster" red hex,but i havent a clue what it goes for and havent seen any for sale.but it will no doubt happen once ive sorted my other list out
