JJ have you tried using the car boot as a child carrier/fun play zone !!!

No nothing.

No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

No tackiness.

Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

Innit?

Lot of money for something you can’t see unless you’re a rear passenger.

Am sure a British company was selling these for the MK2. Do not know if the MK2 ones would fit the MK3 shell seats?

Are they the same shell seats in both the MK2 & MK3?

Think the company was similar to JW/JW Racing/JWR?

Am sure Kenny wood know………..

Another option might be to get them carbon wrapped?

You could just get your own seat backs carbon dipped. Would still look great but cost much less.

I think carbon dipping will be more expensive than you think. I looked into it and other car owners have had it done and I think it was working out at £500 or so for the pair. Probably better off wrapping them if your doing it on the “cheap”.

I love them, just couldn’t cough up that much 🙁
