Evenin all, I repaired my heated seat (driver side) as it was pretty chilly a few times.
I have only done a temporary repair until the weather warms up a bit, then take them apart again and see if I can't sort out the saggy bolsters and get rid of some of the wrinkles.
Anyway, I'll add a few photo's of the job. Never taken a seat apart before, let alone fix a broken element, but it was so easy. No doubt due to LR's "fix at the side of the road" mentality.
The final pic shows how saggy the right side is, but the rest of the cushion is perfectly robust. In fact, both seats are far more supportive than the grey ones that came out.
Once it was put back together and all the clips replaced & support wires clipped in place, it did look a lot better, but phone battery was dying so no more photo's of the build.
Needed a mate with proper functioning arms to do the heavy bits (seat out/in), but the actual repair job was dead easy with me sat on a stool and the repair being carried out on the lower tailgate
Door card on drivers door, the rest at friends getting cleaned and she's making up dye for the damaged handles & arm rests.
It's all coming together nicely
Next is beige & wood wheel, roof rails and a new inside roof trim...
Car's gonna be worth at least 70 quid by the time I'm done
