I'm looking for someone in Surrey who can sort out a small niggle with my leather seats.

Someone suggested Trim Deluxe a while ago, but I had no joy.

Anyone know of anybody else?

Maybe you can shed some light as to what the 'small niggle' actually is + point out what the problem was for trim deluxe?

The leather around the plasic surround behind your head is pulling away slightly. You can hardly see it, but it bothers me so I would like it sorted.

Trim Deluxe never actually looked at it as I exchanged a couple of emails and never heard back from them.

The area in the red circle is what I'm talking about.

Ah, Carelli seats.

Would actually try and fix them myself if it's just coming away from behind the plastic. Some glue that sticks on leather and an old credit card to tug it back in there. Or if the plastic is easily removed, first do that then glue it fixed.

What's with the black ribbon over your pic?

Those are not Carelli's, they are Cobra Daytona's. wink

I've been told to glue it back, but I don't want to take a chance and ruin it as it might be an expensive muck up.

The ribbon is from piston heads.

There is one in Poole, called K Baggs Trimming - that isn't too far from Surrey, akaik. He supports one of the Porsche forums, and has received good reviews there. Probably not cheap though.
