ive got the seats out of the rover 200 that i got my front seats from, and i want my mini seats retrimming with the material from them. does anyone know any companies i can try? the rover 200 rear seat is in two seperate parts, left and right, which might make things complicated.

I have done this myself a few times. It's not too much trouble as the seats are almost certainly wider than the Mini rear bench. Take the covers off, sew the two together so they are wide enough to wrap around the mini bench when one piece, stretch the material over the seat frame and clip with the original clips ... job done!!

If you don't fancy the job yourself then ask your Mum if she has a mate that makes dresses or curtains ... most Mums do!!!

How fast and how expensive ...... the same question...
