if youve burnt the cloth trim.. you basically need to go to the wreckers and find one in good nick.. would be too expensive for an upholsterer to repair...
or if youre not making a show car, get a throw over cover... otherwise, it may be a nice time to upgrade to ghia leather if you have the cash. |

doubt you'll be able to buy that from ford, best bet would be a wreckers/ebay and will probably have to buy a whole seat??

Covering and uncovering the seats is actually quite a simple process TBH
We used to replace the foam inserts inside the seats in the cabs. To get to them, there's just a dozen or so funny staples on the underside of the seats - just take em off the rails and it's obvious what's what.

I guess that answers half the question, as for the material, i'm still guessing your looking at buying a whole seat the same as yours. |

Hi. Try ringing a few motor trimers in the phone book as they quite often have to buy a roll of a material to do 1 repair and then have enough left over for many more. Cheers MD
