Although I'm sure Kitch has the right door cards too. I dont recall BAH having monza cards?
It did have the proper cards. Doesn't have leather anymore....Mat Fenwick is now the proud owner of that!

It's Monza time in BAH again (and secretly I prefer it!)

:shock: YES they were REALLY Citroen factory leather seats, the leather seats in a 16v are the same as the GTI seats except covered in leather rather than cloth. Also with the leather seats in a 16v they had no side bolster adjustment either, just like the GTI.
I have a sales brochure from 1990, I'll scan it and post it up If you like?

I'm such an undecisive t**t, I'm forever thinking of changing things. Thing is, with the little ones on the way, the decision kinda got made for me :( :lol:

But I'm putting the money towards a head rebuild and some tyres. Otherwise I'd never have been able to afford to replace my bent valves.

Ah but now you see, littluns = lots of mess in the back of the car and leather is a lot easier to clean than cloth! and with you having a pair on the way thats twice the mess!!!

although that said, the bx cloth is very resiliant to it! mine survived very well!

on thing though, if you want the seats to keep the shape without the markers from the car seats then you can get a flat wedge to protect the base of the seat! (bx seat contours makes lining the second stage car seats up level a bit tricky!)
