Default Seat retrimmers in North essex/suffolk?

Ive been given a set of COBRA bucket seats to put in my beetle, but they are torn.

does anyone know how much it would cost to recover them, or if cobra sell a seat cover?

sorry dont have any pics, my camera has vanished?

There is a guy based in Burwell (near Newmarket) called Phil Taylor:
P & M Taylor
3, Meadow Industrial Estate, Reach Rd, Burwell, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire CB25 0GH
Tel: 01638 741776
I saw a retrim of some Cavalier Sri Recaros back in the day and the job was spot on.
