Please help i really cant decide...
My car on v reg quite mechanically sound for a 206 ... ive just had the cam belt done...
the inside is looking quite shabby ... in fact id go as far as to say im getting to hate it..
do i a sell the car and save up till i can afford something a little newer than mine ( personally i think better the devil i know)
or scout round at the scrappers for a slightly newer interior .. seats door cards etc
is it a monster job to do? will newer seats fit ? and what sort of price would i look to pay..
not bothered about leather or anything.. but i do want seat belt instead of lap-belt and rear headrests...
ps if anyone selling seats grey or black material let me know ....
so the question sort of is ... sell or not ?
ideas and help as always much appreciated

if you don't after 180GTi interior then it should be fairly cheap to pick one up

Mate I have sports seats if oyu are interested? Its not hard to change the seats. Just a few bolts. Easier than I thought. As far as door cards go I recomend simply spray fabric dye. Comes in a rattle can and is easy as chips to use. I used it for my door cards. It is possible to do whole seats but that would mean about £100 quid in dye so I wouldn't.

I got a 206 gti interior for £110 and it took me half an hour to remove the old seats and the same to fir the new ones, there in mint condition too, the only difficult bit is that there are two bolts hard to get too one on each, the one nearest to the centre console youl need a large extension piece.

onLike Abzynthe says it depends what your budget is? If you scout round on here and are prepared to wait you could probably get one free. Or you got the option of searchin the bay most popular is obviously the gti or 180 interior. As far as I know all interiors fit the 206 bar cc rears.

Its very good stuff the dye. It can be used on clothes so is machine washable. So no it doesn't rub off. The spray nozzles are very good too. No worries Bertt. Did you buy the fabric dye or the upholstery dye? The upholstery cans are a decent size the fabric spray is the same one but its only in a skinny little can.
