I have started putting a black leather into my STI and was curious if I'm doing the right thing ?? I miss the idea of the STI badge next to the headrest so I have stuck a badge on that I have lying a round untill I can get some proper emroidered lettering on the seat. Which looks better though the blue STI trim or the black leather???? I also have all the leather door cards to go with the leather trim.

 

I like them, I like them alot

 

look nice, but too hot in summer and too cold in winter

just my opinion never a happy balance

 

Not for me personally...

 

I've got black leather in my classic - would not change

 

i got half leather and alacantara tirm in my classic, best of both worlds

 

What do you think on the logo idea ????

 

Looks good

 

I prefer leather and I wouldnt be worried about losing the motifs. Id certainly keep the old seats and door cards in the loft though...

 

Looks modern and clean. Quality reupholster too

 

Its a proper subrau leather trim

 

My vote is for leather too. Not had the problem with it being too hot/cold, but may be due to the colour. The wife's Galaxy has black leather and that can get a little hot, though it cools down quickly enough.

 

ill vote oe stuff , i had a full retrim in one of my wagons and i just didnt like it to cold and slidy when you was abit higher up the rev range shall we say lol .

 

M535I is that some form of sexual type thing ???

 

have black and blue leather in my classic. never go back to cloth. interior feels quality place to be. never had probs with being hot or cold, luv it.

 

I have the leather in my SL and they look great and are v comfy, however they are a bit slidey when you is send it on a bit.

G.

 

Much nicer!

Got them in my STI Limited......much more classy than the standard seats (and the missus likes 'em, so helped to buy the car!).

 

Definetly leathers! I was after a set of these but were too expensive, so had to settle for STi seats instead

 

Leather looks spot on when complete. Have it in my STI Spec D and looks a lot more classy than the standard trim IMHO.

Where did you get the leather from and, if you don't mind my asking, how much was it for a front seat?

I don't like the logo but will look good when you get the embroidery done (may even copy you on that one)

 

Get a CG-Lock and thatll be a thing of the past. £40 well spent, I think...

 

I've always thought the STI trim was nice but only really suited a blue car (i've never been a fan of blue carpets in particular). I think the leather looks tons better.

 

Bit more weight there Steve might mean your 1/4 mile times go up and Fin will get closer to you ........looks good tho

 

got leather too in my wrx sl. fine in summer and winter (heated for when its cold!)

no way would it look right in cloth- gives the car a nice feel.

 

look really bad imo

p.s i will buy them off ya

 

Good job I'm adding an extra 100bhp'ish more on the car in the next couple of months So I doubt the extra weight will bother me

 

Definetly leathers! look so much better

 

Down to your own preference i guess. I had leather in my 04 wrx sl, and before i got my current STi, i looked at the spec d, but for me it was too similar to the sl inside, and i personally really like the sti blue seats. I find them more comfortable and less slidey, but saying that leather does give an air of class in side the car.

 

Even if I never added the leather interior the blue trim would of went as I prefer the black STI RA trim from the newer cars

 

diffenetly leather,
looks much better and adds value to the car
wiley

 

I reckon keep em standard. Just how I see it.

Are you wanting a change in colour or just leather? coz there are companies out there that will re-trim your seats in the oiginal colours/logos in leather. I looked at this for my last scoob was about £700 though.
