Mk1 Seat Trim patterns
Hi all,
I'm keen to get my 1971 Capri seats re-trimmed and I understand that there were a number of different patterns available in the black Vinyl. I'd like to use a pattern that was available from new, does anyone have a list of what options there are? I'm thinking I'll go for the plainest pattern. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Mark

Apart from the standard basketweave inserts that Whooligan mentioned, the only other I'm aware of for black seats were the black cloth inserts. These could either be dealer fitted or factory fitted.

Thanks for the replies. I was mainly concerned about the pattern in the black vinyl. I thought there were different patterns but Ill do as suggested and get XY GT spec.

I have a split rear seat also if needed, but you'd have to find the rear parcel shelf to suit.

There is also a simple bracket for it to fix to between the seats(for the parcel shelf) and the parcel trim finishers where it meets the 1/4 are different. You can get fiberglass parcel trays from classic small ford supplies in minto.
