Default Series 2 RS turbo

Just recently purchased an RS, 90 spec in white and me being me isnt happy with the car yet

Seats, mainly the drivers & passenger need a good sort out, stitching & general tidy up. Can anyone recommend a company that can sort this..?

Also, the dash is Switch happy! More switches than my blooming house so can the dash be repaired etc? Again......recommendations welcome.

One last question - what reg/year did the RS come with a computer on the rights side of the dash?

Thanks guys
