    SoCal: cabrio sport seats blue

    I was just in the garage and finally realized I'm not going to use these. Didn't need them, really, but a couple years ago I was on a parts buying spree. Bad habit I have. I think I paid $400, $450 something like that.

    Anyway, they're in pretty decent shape except for a cut in the driver's side outer bolster. Seems the cut went through the leather but not the leather backing. I guess it could be repaired, but I wasn't going to do that. My plan was to just to stockpile blue (indigo) leather parts.

    Sorry some of the bits look shiny, it's because they're damp. They were really dusty and dry, so I was doing what I call a leatherique steam bath where I put a mix of hot water and leatherique in a spray bottle and soak the seats, wipe them down, hit them again etc. I had to take the pics right then or I'd probably not get back to this, stick them back against the wall and there they'd sit for a couple more years.

    I'm thinking [EDITx3] $225obo to a local buyer. I don't know what these things go for these days, so if I'm on crack let me know.

        Did you ever sell your m-tech? Those pics got me so stoked on the m-tech look. When Joe posted he'd taken in a car with the parts, I was on the horn with him in minutes. Still haven't gotten around to installing the parts on the car, though.

            What happened to the rear seat? I need these seats!
            The difference between porcupines and BMWs is that porcupines have the pricks on the outside!

              I have a rear seat bottom that I bought along with the front seats. Not sure how it looks, as I didn't unwrap it since I bought it. As I said, I was just on a stockpiling binge. Maybe this weekend I'll check it out. I don't think I'll use it either.
