2007 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Sumatra Black
leather Seats

I am thinking of changing my front seats for Black Leather, Has anyone done this? is it easy? what should I expect to pay for LR seats? or would I be better going for non LR?

Thank You

Someone mentioned £1000 for a full leather retrim inc. door cards (I think thats what the guy who got screwed by the insurance after the fire said)
Vary rare to find a set for sale on ebay, There is a rear set of half leather ones on ebay For £249

I have had my last eight cars re-trimmed by Classic Car Services in Leicester, www.classiccarservices.co.uk

In reality, expect to pay around £12-1300 for a full leather re-trim including door cards. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

I heard 800-1000. I did once see the original leather LR covers for 5 seats on Ebay and was doing my usual, will I, wont I. Might be too much trouble to fit. Think they went for 60 odd off the top of my head. They were new too. Wished I'd got them. Never seen them since.

You'll never get a full proper re-trim including door cards for £800 to £1000. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

Maybe it was just the seats, not the door trims. I think it was a very old post on here in truth, but the search facility is crud.

Thats a fair point, door cards normally add £200-£300 to the bill, so a £1000 would be about right for the seats only. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........
