Hey guys i picked up some swift gti seats the other day and the map pockets were pretty crap (looks like a foot went through one) bodgey repairs done in the past - so i thought why not make up some new panels/pockets

Image
original seat pocket backing - destroyed
Image
new environmently friendly australian made masonite board - there ya go greenies done my part
Image

got some foam and vinyl today only cos $20 so i was happy with that

then started the covering process

for a total of about $40 i have made new map pockets from scratch and i think these look better than the original item
