Cant complain at all for 100quid nice buy.

Just gone out and spent £7 on leather treatment (Megs) and realised its useless to me, as the leather has lots of small holes

Knew i should have purchased a spray instead.

Comfort wise, they are a lot more relaxed than the previous seats, they don't support you quite as much but the difference is neglegible, much rather whats in there now

Ok, pics...

As you can see there are a couple of scuffs on the rear bench, but nothing that can't be treated to look a bit better

Need to sort something out with the clips at the base of the bench (you can probably just see them) so i'll probably make up some covers for them out of the old bench clips!

/edit - Excuse the 'Max' mats, fitted by the previous owner. I'm waiting on a set of Genuine ones from Vauxhall, but i refuse to not have anything under my feet as i don't want to ruin the carpet

Needs the headlining and pillar cowells colouring black IMO.

Phil W · 6 Jul 2007 at 16:05

I thought about that, but i've seen it done and it just looks way too much!

Were you following me through Mkt Drayton for a bit last night dude? Noticed an Astra with black wheels etc. behind me

I really dislike white/cream headlining when the rest of the interior is black, it just screams "low end model".

I have a top end model which has black seats and cream headlining, can't think of many cars that don't have cream headlining to be fair :confused:

No MK3 Astras (or any other vauxhalls i think) came with a black headlining, you would have to re-trim it yourself (not a hard job tbh, just don't like the look of it

)
