Eric,
I liked the kit that came from Vicki Brit, but I was unhappy with the way
the "wings" went on my seats. The problem could have been me and my lack
of uphpolstery experience. Most of the parts seemed a bit to small.
On the other hand the carpet and panel sets went in without any problem
and look great.
Even with the seat cover fitting problems it came out looking OK (well
maybe a bit better than just OK). I wasn't real concerned with the seats
because here in Nevada and with a convertible you never want to sit on
black anything. Sheepskin covers are over the new vinyl seats.
I got the kit in the winter sale last year for 995.00
Regards,

Subject: 1976 TR6 reupholsery kits -- who's is best?
Add this to the list of questions that seems to come up every so often. I
apologize if this has been discussed recently.
Being that it is almost fall / winter, I'm considering the projects that
should be completed on my 1976 TR6. The biggest project is reupholstery
of
my seats and interior panels. I plan on purchasing both the seat kits and
the panel kits from the same distributor to ensure matching vinyl.
My question to the group is: in your opinion, who provides the best, most
original foam kit and reupholstery kit in terms of fit and looks? The
color
I need is Chestnut, if that matters for answering the question. I also
have
the separate headrest that I also want to recover.
Thanks a bunch!!
