Yeah, I know it's a bit odd!

Anyone know if they are machine washable or not? Mine are a bit dirty, don't
want to knacker them.

Also, does anyone know what holds the armrests to the seats, are they
welded, or bolted. One of mine is very loose & could do with a bit of
fettling.

Cheers

If they are, they will have a little label in them giving details of
temperature of wash, whether you should spin dry, tumble dry, iron an
all that stuff. Remarkable I know, Charlotte was impressed when I
found out about it - especially as it meant all my washing failled to
come out the same colour...

hehehhe - I actually mean the actual seat covers, not overcovers. My washing
is as good as my Swahili!

She's taking shape now, all the carpets & seats are back in & she's welded
up & serviced a treat. Looking forward to going off road soon enough.

looking at the long range weather, we might be in for a bad winter, so it
might have a use other than a bit off off road driving.

I was going to give it a good powerwashing today, but after last night out
in Sheffield, I feel like crap!

How the feck are you going to get the seats into the washing machine?

(Assuming the covers that come fitted to the seats do not come off,
easily, anyway...)

Friday noght...

They do, it's easy, in my Subaru, they have zips on in case you get muck &
**** all over them whilst rallying!

LOL! same here about Bradford, we went to West street, & around that area.
Started off in the Sportsman! Ended up in bits! Bastard customer had us like
kippers, he told me to book into the Grosvenor. Well, I'm no snob, but it
was ****ing horrific! Next time I'll book a decent place! If I was going out
in Sheffield, Eccleshall Road is OK, a few decent boozers round Attercliffe
(including the most haunted pub in the UK!!) if you like it rough! My mate
lives in Chapeltown, so I've been in the Arundel a few times & the other
boozers round there.

The good thing about Sheffield is the size of the place, it's a very big
sprawling city, I know most of it as It's always been my area for work.

I was that battered today I forgot to meet the bloke that bought my side
steps to give him the brackets & also forgot to meet a bloke from work on
the way home!!!! Not good :~(

the disco ones come off quite easily, as I found out when trying to repair
and reinforce the utterly crap seat frame underneath.

Dyson do like a dry clean typr powder to use with the dyson however nailing
the cover to the floor may prove to be a problem......

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
