To be honest apart from the distance........  that was one of the factors that put me off a little from going to Swansea , but it does help enable that cracking price, The guy I used in Romford fits a brand new window ( non genuine mind , but you would'nt know unless you studied it )
2004 Facelift in Crystal Silver (sub 30k)  with genuine bodykit,Precats out,Red Leather,Remus Dual Exhaust,Carbon Thresholds,vvti Badging on wings,TTE chrome fuel flap surround,Bridgestone Potenza REO40's ,Aerial override mode,RED Mohair roof, Bonnet and engine cover gas struts and a few other small internal tweaks :-)
And now... Mikes (my own) anti dash creak mod !

No need to worry about the windows, so far everyone ive seen the window has been damageless, including my own. Lets be honest if there was damage it would likely be a crack in which case he wouldnt be fitting it.

Good point Tomaky... I suppose it takes time to prepare and bond the window + mohair and so he does them beforehand and that's why a previous window is used.

I'm actually looking forward to the drive to Swansea... I'm entirely fine with driving long distances by myself...  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

The gent that does the mohair roof does all car trimming jobs i believe.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Yes Jack Smith in Swansea basically does most of the fabric upholstery work on a car.

It's this for full leather that looks and functions as well as the brand new factory version? If so, anyone got an idea of price for the two and whether he can match the seat to the roof colour if he did both? Like on a red edition....?

Ask Ducatiross about this as he spoke to them about his seats or just phone Jack Smiths boys and have a quick chat on the phone.
Where are you in Uk?

Gerald is on holiday until Next Monday, spoke to Jack earlier and he said to ring Monday once Gerald is back.
Found a nasty split/rip down the driver's side of my roof   s:shock: :shock: s:shock:   Back to a swimming pool in my foot-well again, so I've got no choice in the matter now   s:cry: :cry: s:cry:  One day, I'll be allowed to get the double exit exhaust I want!!!!
Oh well, perhaps a blue mohair roof will cheer me up   s:bounce: :bounce: s:bounce:
The Sun is out, the sky is blue,
The roof is down on my MR2,
And I\'m grinning, grinning ear to ear!
