brought them from www.car-interior.co.uk

Quality is spot on and they are Nappa leather which is a much better quality leather than most normal leathers.

Were not to bad to fit but it takes 2 people as they are well tight tofit.

as Vroooom said, you have to remove the existing covers first.

With recaros they are simply hooked over and fixed with steel wire, very easy.

A few people take there covers off and wash them from time to time as there is no special tools required to remove or refit them.
