Are they actually worth anything/of any use to anyone? Got in lurking in the garage taking up valuable room and it seems terrible to take it to the dump...


I was even thinking of turning them into a seating bench in said garage but I haven't even got space for that...

To me the seat paddings of the passenger seat have value. Although I already have a nice set.

Where in Devon are you as after a passenger seat to put some life into my drivers seat? I work in Plymouth during the week and drive through the county en route.
Always preferred non leather in my cars personally.


If all else fails read the instructions

Plymouth, Peverell.

Part of me says hold on to them but their only going to take up space. You can have the whole lot for free if you want.

I have a complete set of non-leather in Weston-super-Mare. If anyone wants to collect them, otherwise they'll be off to the dump tomorrow :-(

I have a related question, just to clarify; is it possible to use the foam base from non-leather passenger seat to replace a worn one in drivers leather seat? IE are they the same?

@gargoil:
Yes.
It is also possible that the non-leather seat is newer than your leather seats. This is probably the case if your car orginally had non-leather seats and someone took new seats from a scrapped coupe (which was the case at mine).

In that case I would take the frame of the driver non-leather seat, the padding from the non-leather passenger seat and the leather from your drivers seat.
