Can you post a sketch of what you might have in mind? Jerry Feather
How about something that would attach to the right side rail next to the shifter?

Please start a new thread for this, jerry. No need to hijack a seat reupholstering thread for your center console sales guys.

Can you post a picture of your seat upholstery in Cork? I think I have a hide that is called "cork" but I doubt that it is the same as the seat upholstery cork that you have. Is there any other color, like dark brown or black in your interior, besides the seat upholstery.

Maybe the picture will also help Hayden with his seat upholstery venture.

He has a few projects going on so it will be about 2 weeks. I'm looking forward to seeing the results as well. If the quality is as good as the Carrera seats he was working on I am sure I will be very happy with the results.

If he can get the pleats right, you're in the clear!

He knows how the pleats are supposed to be as well as the proper contour of the cushions. Also left him some pictures of good seats and bad ones just in case.

Still not done yet but that is probably a good thing....In the mean time I have refinished the rear seat cushions to match the new black inserts the front seats will have...not as good as reupholstering them but I think it came out pretty sharp.

One can of Vinyl & Fabric paint later.....
(included a before shot as well)
