meisterberg v TMI - seat covers


Hi guys, Im ready to order my new Seat Upholstery but im tossing up between meisterberg v TMI can anyone comment on these 2 companies
wanting front, back and door cards (full set) the TMI is a little higher in price but i think the door cards might be complete not like the meisterberg just the covers.

Regards
Terry

Hi
I've only heard of TMI and many many people have used their seat covers etc... great quality..

Never ever heard of any problems..

just make sure You have the correct seat details..
I have read where the USA beetles had narrower seats in some years?
seat backs..

I can vouch 4 the TMI products

I had seat covers and door trims on my Type 3 when I had young kids with them jumping all over the seats every day they were still good after 10 years when I sold the car Quality products

meisterberg are only new on the scene aren't they? Maybe contact them and see if someone close to you has some.

I am in the process of fitting Meisterberg covers and side panels to my project. For price and workmanship I give them a double :tu::tu:
You may need to use new fibre pads if yours have settled or foam them up a bit but the stitching is spot on and for AUD$550 delivered for a full set, I'm stoked :)

( BTW, the Aussie distributor, Justin, is extremely helpful and responds to emails quickly )

If you want original VW colours to maintain originality... TMI

I've had a Meisterberg kit fitted into my 62 beetle and am more than happy with the quality and finish of the seat covers and door trims. TMI have been around for a while and do have a very good reputation, especially among the mainstream trim suppliers but I took a punt and gambled on the new entrant and I'm happy I did. Meisterberg is great value.

And how much $$ ?
