What would I be looking to pay & where from please?

eBay & here, anything between £6-£800 depending on condition

Cheers bud. Nothing on fleabay at the minute but I'll keep my eyes open.

Contact Seat Surgeons in York, they have retrimmed many vRS seats on here.

I vouch for Seat Surgeons. Top guys.

You got the option of a retrim where you choose everything, or lookout on here and eBay for OEM Leather

+1, had my Octavia Vrs re- trimmed by them, 1st Class. Ask for Paul, the Boss 01904 795092

There are bargains to be had on eBay, you've just got to be quick

Exact Q from me too.

Last time I heard about a price for Seat Surgeons, it was about £900.

Reports currently are about £912 plus the cost of getting your car there and back.

Well worth the money, york is a nice place to look around too whilst your waiting. Only took 4 hours for me, stay up in a local travelodge for 28 quid if you live too far away that's what I did.

I took over Paul's meeting room for the morning and did uni work. I did very little work, choosing instead to spend most of the time watching my car being re-trimmed!

Really a retrim is the only option, My seats are ******, I mean really ****** & I have been looking on ebay for a few months now & you wont get a bargain all there really is are battered old cloth seats for around £300-400 which is a lot for a bit of cloth & foam covered in stains. Leathers are even rarer & unless they are from an SE (seriously unlikely) they are (IMO) pretty horrible too.

The only other choice is leather for a golf or tt but then your looking at around £800 and you got to make them fit.

When I've saved up the money I will make a trip to York for they day

Keep looking a bit harder then

I managed to get my leather interior for £450 on eBay only last month.

The Polo GT interior I had before the leather, got for less than £200 as well.

Both in pretty much perfect condition with no stains.

IMO your best option aside from a retrim is Polo 9N3 seats. GTi seats fetch £400-500 and are stunning, they have huge bolsters.

Interesting comment. So you don't rate either Seat Surgeons or dealer-fit Skoda?

The leather I had on my custom-trimmed 2004vRS was actually a nicer leather than the SE's seats but the SE's are better put together. I've now treated them twice with Skoda leather treatment and they've definitely improved in feel.
