Outstanding my friend what colour did you go for in the end ps don’t forget to post pics when done

Well - choices choices - I went cream (Non-perforated), as it seemed closest to the surrounding colour scheme - although beige, and tan both looked similar....
I must take photos of the before and after!!

Thanks for your post prompting me to get on with it!!

@bane1985 You've made a real nice job of yours - mine arrived today, so just need to find the time to put them in.
What glue did you use for sticking the leather to the bottom shrouds?
And how did you get such a tidy job around the top - I'm thinking a nice tight bit of string, or possibly small cable ties?
