Jaguar XJS Seats!

Well i have been looking for some replacement seats for the Herald that would be in keeping, and decided that Jaguar XJS seats would look ok in the herald. Seats are often overlooked i think, you spend most of your time in them, so to me, a comfy seat is a high prioity! Red jag XJS seats are not very common, most being tan or grey or beige or black. i did find some red ones that were the same colour as the rest of the interior, but they were in need of alot of attention, so, i ended up getting burgundy ones, not a perfect match put better than grey! I though i may use some pro leather dye at some point in the future if i can be arsed! this is a 3 stage process of cleaning the leather with special stuff, then applying the new colour then finally applying some dye fixer sealer type stuff! the seats went in without too much fuss, i had to cut off the seat mounted seatbelt thinggies with was a shame as i would have liked to have used those. I made up some seat brackets to fix to the floor out of some old alloy stuff i had previously got from a rubbish pile, i think the alloy used to be part of a patio door...
The seats have heating elements and electric lumbar supports too! hehe maybe i will get round to wiring them up one day!

here you can see the seat bases i made up, the jag seats bolt on to these

And here is what they look like in the car...
