Hmmm, nice. So what do you get for your money. Seats (front and rear)? complete door panels?? Do they let you keep the old items?

Must admit looks very nice. I'm thinking about the PPP for my Sti7, but I might be better getting leather.

Cheers all
Gareth

PS. anyone got anymore pics?, e-mail them to me if poss.. thanks again.

Got it in an MY00, it looks great but I'm not sure whether the normal seat covering material would hold you in place better, I suspect it would.

Hope it helps

I was just wondering as i've never known anyone having it in a MY01/02 and I saw a pic of the seats on the subaru web site last night... Looks good though and I suspect it would be easier to wipe off those little accidents from your children than the standard cloth....

yep, got leather in MY01.

it is great for cleaning off the kids accidents, but does need treating/cleaning about twice a year with leather conditioner etc to keep at its best (and bring back the smell!)

looks great too!

in my case, was fitted to the car when I bought it second hand, not sure if I would pay the new price though.

hope this helps (a bit).

Me too!!

Dark grey - matches the interior and carbon - looks fab IMHO

They replace the panel on the doors which look like they were factory fit in leather.

£1100 from my dealer.

Cool

It's just a thought. The first comment from my wife when we got in the car was "those seats don't look very hard wearing".

Also, it's will be easier to wipe off those stains, baby sick, etc..

Consider alcantara instead? Definitely grippier, definitely doesn't get hot in the sun (if applicable in UK), and possibly as good for cleaning off baby sick; I'm not sure but a friend of mine had an alcantara sofa and was amazed how much it cleaned up after a party...

Bringing this up again as i'm still thinking about it.

When you have leather fitted, do they retrim your existing seats / door cards, or do you get new ones.

thanks all

Gareth.
