:o Try a saddler if short of options
:puzzled:
I know someone based in Portsmouth who can re-cover seats, I've seen his work and it's good. If you want his number, I can get it tomorrow for you.

thanks for all the responses guys- found a local classic car restorer that can do the job for me- hes only too pleased to have a go at a bike seat instead of an austen healey - ready in a couple of days!
