Has anybody had their DB9/V8V seats renovated? The creases in the driver's seat cushion of my 05MY DB9 are niggling me. I have tried to remove them using the usual tricks without much success. After several well known leather treatments failed I think the only way to obtain a perfect result is to replace the seat cushion. Cushion assemblies, front seat trimmed, are shown in the parts list, so fitting complete new seat cushions should hopefully
be a straightforward job.

You may have tried something similar but maybe these guys could help?

I haven't used then myself or anything but contemplated fixing the leather in my 911.

I had exactly the same problem and a firm called D-Class http://www.dclass.co.uk/ re-connollised the leather and the result was excellent - very reasonable too. I can't see where you live but they are in Woking, Surrey.

They upholster the McLaren F1 seats apparently so they know what they're doing.

Thanks, I looked at Multiserve before and decided renconnolising would be wrong as Aston Martin's Bridge of Weir leather is produced in a different way. It should be easier to fit replacement pre-covered seat cushions if they are available from AM.

Thanks, they looks promising. I live in West Sussex, which is not far away. I have emailed Works Service about replacement cushions, so will see what and are what they say first.
