Low Back Seats
About to get my seats and door panels retrimmed but would like to put Low Back seats back into my bug
Its an early 1971 Super, so should have them as they changed later in the year, but who ever got them retrimmed before me had them replaced with the
high backs.
(Please no questions about why i want to put lowbacks in... I know its a safety thing, and yes its just a personal preference)
The seats need to be the 'T' shape runner, and condition doesnt really matter as they will be repadded and and reupholstered. Im willing to swap my
set of matching front and rear seats plus door cards (had just been reupholstered befor the car was taken off the road 10 years ago, just need a
clean, no rips or tears, blue fabric front and vinyl sides and backs.) but will need a set in return minus the door cards...

How did you go with the seats jeremyluke? I've still got the ones I took out of my 71. One's in poor condition and needs retrimming. The other is
reasonable condition and could be used as is. I'm in Adelaide but if you can wait until January 2013 I'll be moving up to the Newcastle area and can
bring them with me.
