Did they make the car seats in that 4.5 hours or did they buy them in ready made and just fitted? wow just converted the price, about £125 for the visors
I had to put down a deposit to pre-order the leathers a couple of weeks in advance. As they have done quite a few Copens before, they already have all the necessary dimensions. Otherwise, they would need to dismantle the seats to measure it up. When the roll of leather came in from Malaysia (their warehouse), they have a team of ladies sewing the seat leather panels together. On the day of appointment, they will remove the old leathers and slipped the new ones over. The cost is expensive due to the choice of quality Nappa beige leathers. Cost of the seats and door panels is S$1500. I will need to tone down on the rest of my mods! :-((
That makes sense then. I did think the seat covers fitted well and looked like originals. I like the door cards the most. Even though the cream is nice, i don't think I'd like it in my silver car. Why not paint the silver strip on the door handle cream to match? I think it will set it off more than the silver which isn't really matching anything else. A small thing but really complement the door cards. Yes that sounds like a dent in the funds. Did you want the extra foam to give you some more height? I'd like them a little lower.
Agree, I would need to do something with the silver strip. Maybe wooden claddings? Should go well with a classic wooden steering wheel and wooden shift knob. The extra foam is simply to improve the comfort level. It really feels better on the butt now. The car being 7 years old, I can almost feel the plastic with my butt. If cream is not for you, the leathers come in other colours to match your silver car.
It looks like the tyre inflation kit. The bottle is the "goo" that actually seals the tyre - it's probably gone bad by now. My car didn't have one, so I've two bottles of TyreWeld in the boot.
That would be the puncture repair gunk & a compressor to re-inflate the tyre. They'll be a use by date on the repair gunk.
Well, you can use Tyre Weld or a small foot pump. I've both in my boot for such occasions. Since the goo (or Tyre Weld for that matter) cannot be used if there is side wall damage, if that happens, you're up a creek without a paddle, unless your road side assistance can get you a tyre
I got those in my car, not the screwdrivers though. My compressor has never been out out of its cellophane and the goo is unused. Looks like Copens aren't prone to punctures unless my cars previous owner used an alternative method. Should there be a jack with the car? My car hasn't got one or it's well hidden and I haven't found it yet. If Copens did come with a jack where is it housed?
In SG, we hardly get a flat tyre. In any case, we do have repair shops in close proximity to get to it quickly.
Sorry DaG. The screwdrivers are mine. Kept them in the photo so that it is easier to visualise the dimension. My jack (middle bottom of photo) is located just below this black pouch. The bottom of the boot has a nice catch to keep the jack secured.
I'll have a look In the morning but I can't recall seeing a jack anywhere in my boot. Thanks for that Joeleow.
I've had a look and I do have a jack, its where yours is Joeleow. I suppose I could have read the instruction book that came with the car to find out, but.
Got into the mood to do some DIY on my ride and got this chrome strips. Cut it into halves and laid it out flat. My little princess helped with the 3M tape. And on it goes the following morning. Using scotch tape to adjust and fix its position first. Pulling out the 3M tape carefully. All done. Hope it matches up with the rest of the chrome stuff that is on its way.
Found my old set of Morel speakers. Hope it is still usable. This is a two way setup with impressive tweeters.
