Interior refresh

[NeilS3]

Thinking of refreshing the interior on my S3. Anyone done something a bit different recovering wise?

In what sense? Materials used? More or less leather. Alcantara. Rubber.

Different seats? Personally, I think the Cerb seats are superior in every way to the standard armchairs. I also like the [cheaper] Lotus Elise / VX220 seats over the standard.

You could easily fit heating to the seats.

Can't see the point or a radio in a TVR so make another cubby hole or adapt to fit a satnav / tablet.

Fit a louder indicator 'clicker'.

Get a Surrey Roof.

Fit a cargo net on the rear shelf.

Fit a manual boot release on the rear bulkhead.

Swap the nut and bolt fixing for the rear hoop struts for captured nuts or bonded in big head studs.

Fit a MGTF rear view mirror with map lights.

Fit footwell puddle lights.

Was more thinking in line with the leather/vinyl. I vaguely remember some years ago a blue S series car that had revamped the whole interior even to the extent of lining the inside of the headlining to match however not showing on google etc.

How much were you thinking of spending? Bear in mind that going too far from standard might put off a future buyer.

Yes good.point always a bit of a trap doing what you think looks great but if ever sell limits buyers.

Interested to see what other folks have done.

Not sure on budget yet early days.

I think you need to decide on your budget first. Over or under four figures? Trimming is very expensive.
