    Exmoor Trim in the UK, they're the original makers. They sell all trim parts, and apparently include fitting instructions as well.

    In my experience it will be wise to find out the shipping costs before you pay
    Often more than the cost of the seat parts
    Just my 10c worth....

    Exmoor lists BMI (lrparts.com.au) as a distributor of their products. Could be worth an email.

    HI

    I had a quote from a local auto upholsterer to replace a couple of the panels in the seat base and they quoted about $250.00

    I have decided to treat the seat with leather conditioner so it doesn't deteriorate any further, then spend the money on fitted sheepskin seat covers.

    $250 is good. I just got quoted over $800, as they said they've got to buy a minimum amount of leather, then at least 4 hrs of labour. $800 as a minimum.

    It makes it look expensive when one can buy a pair of black leather bucket seats for just over 700 bucks

    No listing for P38 or P38A on their website (apart from floor mats and seat belt extender).

    Yes, options are very expensive.
    The passenger side will have the arm rest on the wrong side.
    I will probably just put some cheap seat covers on for now and keep my eye open for a cheap 2nd hand one.
    I couldn't get any where with finding a new cover, I chased up a couple of leads, but they all turned round and said they can't help.
