    Coupe Leather

    Hello all,
    First post since I found out how to do this.

    Can anyone help? Will the leather seats at this link fit my RHD ABY S2 Coupe?

    http://cgi.ebay.de/Audi-S2-Quattro-L...QQcmdZViewItem

    Will they make the driver sit higher as the car already has a sun roof and is tight on headroom?

    What should they go for?

    Where would I get leather door cards for the front doors?

    Is there another option, such as cleaning the current interior, which is in good but tired condition?

    Has anyone had successful experience of cleaning a tired interior?

    Thanks in advance.

    welcome ,ive renovated one or two tired looking interios you can get it done profetional
    for about 50 quid ,if you have leather once this has been cleaned you can have it re coloured with proper leather dye to cover scuffs ect ,you can do it yourself if you get the right chemicals do you have any pictures .

      I go and collect the car on the 15th May. The interior is black cloth at the moment with Quattro stripes on the seat backs. This is the original. There are no tears or burns so it should be capable of cleaning. Who would anyone recommend?

              Hey, I am in Cambridge (well 1.5 miles outside it) where are you based?

              BTW, not that it matters, but the seats that you are looking at are from a 3B, not an ABY, just in case you are a stickler for OEM

              Cheers n

                cheers Andy,
                I'm wanting to do restore the colour in my front seats as they have become cracked and faded in the usual places, what professional products do you recommend?

                Also I have a collapsed side bolster on the drivers side which I plan on replacing soon, the leather has become heavily creased over time, besides the bolster filling out the creases is there anything else I can to to "smooth" it out?

                Cheers,
                Nuvo

                  try liquid leather (cleaner + conditioner) available together via ebay and a few other places, around £12 for both
