MFC05 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I got the shit spec of the V35 and it didnt come with the half leather seats, i was wondering if anyone has looked into getting all the seats retrimmed to leather will the side airbages be a problem ? Also does anyone in Brisbane know any high quaility auto trimmers that would be able to do it, and also roughly how much will this excercise cost me ? Thanks for yall help Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/243725-getting-the-v35-seats-retrimmed-from-cloth-to-leather/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Speak to Jeff at C-Red and his email is [email protected] as he might have some of the leather kits available, their are quality re-trim kits using leather that comes from the same manufacturer as Nissan. These are not the leather seat covers.

Stephen Thorpe Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Side Airbags, or any Airbag, should never be re-trimmed, save for a light coat of paint should be ok...

Tokyo Geoff Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I looked at some V35s today which you can see on Ebay that had the seats redone in leather and they looked great except for the bolsters. This part looked like a typical re trim, very amateurish I was told they can be done for about $2000 but that would I am sure be a dealers discount price. cheers Geoff Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/243725-getting-the-v35-seats-retrimmed-from-cloth-to-leather/#findComment-4248926 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLISTC Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 i remember when i was looking at V35's 2 years ago that there was a dealer across the road from Powerplay Imports and he had 2 V35's which i checked out and both of them had full leather interior.
