Default Prodrive felt seat graphics [eBay link]

Following on from the success of my Impreza felt seat logos Ive now got some Prodrive ones, they come in grey with a light blue line, made from felt they are hardwearing make the plain seats look much better.

3 pairs can be found here:-

I would perhaps say no to putting them on leather, you use a medium to hot iron so it may burn or leave a mark on leather.

These wont flake as they are made from felt, they are hardwearing and should last years, they are positioned in a place where contact is minimal.

I leave feedback in bulk around once a month, it will be done.

Thanks

Received and fitted mine today.

Working alone, it was a bit fiddly trying to keep them in position and make sure they were centred but persistance paid off. I set the iron on the low side to start with and found that I had to turn it up a couple of times before the adhesive finally took. I also used a slightly damp thin cloth to help prevent scorching the seat but I am not sure if this is really neccesary.

Results:





Overall I am extremely pleased with the results and think they make the plain old seats miles better. I havent a clue at this point how they will stand up to wear and tear so will have to monitor that.

How easy would they be to remove after you`d put them on and then decided you didn`t like them?

Edit my last comment, these leave a nice gluey mess behind when removed.

Any recommendations on how to remove the glue?

Gutted that after fitting the ones for j16 jrf, ive managed to completely mess an rb5 seat!!!

Decals themselves are top notch.
