Mercedes-Benz R107 Seat Retrim

Out With The Old, Retrimmed In The New

Another devoted d:class customer, this Mercedes-Benz was scheduled for both front seats to be retrimmed because they had previously been retrimmed improperly. The material is inaccurate to OEM spec, the piping is too big, the shoulder stitching is incorrect, and the flutes are not all the same size or spaced evenly. The Vinyl is not that of Mercedes-Benz, so this shows that the seats have previously been retrimmed. The customer decided to treat their pride and joy with a Mercedes-Benz OEM leather upgrade.

Following the customer's selection of the preferred material, we assign our extremely skilled staff the tasks of disassembling the seats, creating new patterns from scratch, sewing them all together, adding new foams to the seat centre flutes, fitting the covers, and meticulously reinstalling the seats into the vehicle.

This Mercedes-Benz R107 was originally from the USA, but has been brought over to the UK, had the headlights replaced, and recently received a fresh respray.

For the seats, we have used classic Mercedes-Benz Brasil leather with perforated centres. The customer is over the moon with the results, and upon collection has decided they want to book in with us again to get the carpets replaced as these have faded over time and appear almost green. We look forward to having this delightful R107 back with us in the near future.
