I decided I want my interior cream and scince I wont have any back seats due to the size of the inner arches and the wheels they will be holding I actualy only need front seats and door cards etc. So I purchased this lot a w reg jaguar s type cream leather interior for just £10 bargain, They have a few marks but for a tenner it was worth a risk and I will see if they will go in and clean up with some rennovator etc. It is mentioned in the listing that alot of the marks are storage marks and should clean up, the rest are just crack on the drives seat.

10 quid!!! Damn where do u source ur parts

Could u customise the back seats to take the centre seat out?

yes prob but the inner arches are going to take up[ the majority ofthe rear seat. I am not holding my breath with the interior as i emailed the guy last night asking him if i could collect tonight and would he like me to give him the money then or pay through paypal which i think is a waste of time for a tenner when am collecting the item??? and have still not got a reply and he wanted them collecting within 48 hrs

was there a reserve? maybe he wont let them go for 10 quid but forgot to set a reserve,but u won the auction,legal contract and so on

I bought some processors off ebay recently with a stupidly low winning bid (no1 else bidded so they only cost £1 lol) and the seller took a few days to respond so I thought he wasnt happy with selling them at that price, but I got them in the end.

So just give it a few days more, if they still dont respond, contact ebay.

Hope ya get em though matey they look mint!

got the seats and they were in good ick untill i realised they are far to big, the subframes are huge and full of electrics so i removed the backs and base thinking i might be able to make a subframe to suit. But have now realised they will look stupid and have decided to keep with the recaros and pay to get retrimmed.

Not much money lost then thankfully, and ya shud be able to sell em on at a profit on fleabay hehe!

offer em to a scrappy mate? or bang em up on a mondeo owners club, for a small fee someone will bite ur hand off,and i reckon u cud get quite a sum if u held out for a serious buyer, but if u ask 30-50 quid people will take them. If my interior where cream i'd have em

ive got them up for free on cw and no1 wants them lol

well i dont know of any car they'd fit in easily and match colours from CW. Apparently the jag is very similar to mondeos tho,and i think some mondeos (ghias) came with cream interiors, and theyre big enough for such seats

Just bought all of the above am going to throw away all the old dash and gauges etc, use the old dash to make a template for the new and mount all the above in to it and the send it of to get sprayed silver metalflake. Ive got pics of my car just dnt know how to get them up so am waiting for lawton to do it(hint hint) lol. The gauges are going to sit into the surround which is sandwiched into place between the gauges and the wooden dash.

Nice gauges like them.

Send the pics to me if you want matey.

[email protected] and i'll host them.

Just worked out how to host pics, note all chrome strip holes and badges have been removed, scoop smothed in, arches puled out and new tread plates and sills. Its almost ready for the paint, cant wait to get it back so much to do to it but I cant do it whilst its in the body shop.

just to paint a picture front end will sit lower with the same wheels which are on the rear for a much lower stance

No you havnt,
use full reply and you can upload them direct to our
server, then when you run out of space at the 3rd party
pic hosting, you will have to delete them.

Or when they experience busy traffic they prevent
images from being viewed at all.

NOT if you up load them using "File Manager"
See upload tutorials.

Just info, as finding time to host pictures in
members modified cars is more and more difficult,
so if you want to keep them for all to see upload
via our upload manager, direct from your desk top.

Use Reply to see these options.

Looking good rhys fella
