Do you sweat on Vinyl seats in Summer? Here's a Solution.
« on: 22 January, 2009, 01:05:45 AM »
If like me, in my Fulvia, your shirt gets all sticky & wet on Vinyl/leather type seats in the summer, and your legs in shorts stick to the cushion :o

Then get in quick before saturday 24th January at Scotts of Stow,
 see http://www.scottsofstow.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product1_19551_-1_49071_10551

They are selling some pretty good quality seat covers with a fan in the backrest + one in the cushion which you can select as either or both.
A pair I ordered turned up today and I was so impressed I've just ordered another set for the Mercedes, trimmed in Grey Alcantara like material they are reduced from 19.95 each to £3.95 ;D so a pair including postage is only £12.85.
Nearly forgot, they also have a mains adaptor so you can use them indoors or in the office!
Wish I'd had them in Turin on the Lancia 100 :D

Brian, I like you in your Fulvia too!  ;)

I've just ordered a pair for my black vinyl seats in my Beta Spyder.

Guy,
I'd offer to get you a pair but after the piece of Alcantara I sent you that probably finished up as a handbag in Johannesburg, I'd be a bit reluctant to post them! ::)

Just realised I'd had a "Panda eat shoots and leaves" moment.

Not to worry Brian, they're being delivered to my sister in Carlise UK.  Much safer!
