Trofeo Seat Upholstery

V8_Vair · 06-23-2006, 01:19 PM

Are there any aftermarke sources, or NOS sources for Toronado Trofeo bucket seat upholstery? I have a set of buckets for an '84 (I think!), but they are in blue leather, I would prefer a tan or even black. If the leather was in better shape, I would consider dye, but alas, the leather is very brittle.

Thanks,

George

I have a Rare 1988 Trofeo Convertible and have owned several be for this and the leather upholstery on ALL of them was deteriorate even with only 20K. I’m ordering a hyde and having half of it perforated to replicate the original. These seats are complicated but a talented upholster can do the job. A hyde you purchase will be FAR superior to the original.
My project starts this fall…Keep you posted.

That sounds like you have a good plan. That way you can get the exact color you want too. Expensive though.
