Default Burnt rooflining

Hello everyone, my mate has managed to put a stinking big fag burn in the rooflining on my mk5 fiesta. Does anyone know if my local Ford dealer will be able to replace it and how much it would cost?

Thanks in advance

Its probably Velour (grey at a guess) A decent SMART repairer will be able to sort it for circa 50 quid at your home or work, 30-40 min job

I've done them on Range Rovers and numerous others which have been burnt by flying sparks in bodyshops

It can be repaired but the black fleck will make it very difficult to look "right"

In my experience and in situations like this where the car is older etc etc

It is often easier and not necessarily dearer to pick up a secondhand seat base...

That would be my recommendation in this instance
