Hi guys
I want to fit Lh slr seat coveres to my seats.
The rear seat is the "stright" back and I have been told you can't fit the Lh covers due to the back has a slight dip in it.
Can it be modified to fit? Has anyone else done this before?
If so I need someone to be able to do this in Melbourne.

Cheers
Nick

Good upholsterer will mod the seat foam to fit the LH covers easily. Mine was same as yours.

I thought it would be possible, spoke to the bloke that sells covers on eBay he advised me it's not possible.
Trying to find seats with the dip is proving to be a mission.
Your trimmer wasent in Melbourne by any chance ?

Only LH SLR had the dip so not easy to find, mine were done in Brisbane. Gave him the covers and a photo of the dip with a ruler in the pic.

You wouldn't happen to have the pic with the ruler?
And if you have a pic how it turned out would be good too.

Cheers
