Been a while since I posted in this forum so here's a few pictures of my new seat covers. I had them made locally by a trimmer who works at Jaguar. I broke the gearbox about a month ago so while I was waiting for parts I had the seats collected, took him a few weeks. All the foam was replaced as well so the seats are a lot firmer.

Neither, difficult to describe the colour, it was the closest match he could find to the door cards.
