    New interior for the Game

    I have now put some new seats and door trims into the original Game (Clancy). It was cheaper to get all of it from the UK than to get the seats repadded and recovered here. They are from Exmoor Trim bought through John Craddocks and are the "Deluxe" ones. The door trims are also the deluxe version with arm rests and pockets. The original trim in the Game was the deluxe stuff so this is really just replacing it with similar. There are some differences in the seats though as the new ones are a bit firmer and more shaped than the ones that were in there. I had to make up some wooden bits to get the seats sitting properly as it seems there are different ways for the seats to be located. The door trims also required a few minor changes sine the Games have burst proof locks and the trims were designed for the older ones. The original seats weren't really bad, just had a couple of cracks in the vinyl and the foam in the drivers seat base was a bit flat. They have been reused by putting them into the other Game (Banjo) which had much worse condition seats.

    Anyway here are some photos to show what they look like all in place.







    I have given them a good clean since I took these so no dirty marks on them anymore .

    Not rude at all Agro, the prices are on the Craddocks web site so they are public anyway

    The complete door trim kit which is actually three parts per side (top, armrest, lower part with pockets) is about 105 pounds plus freight of about 70 pounds. I got a few other things at the same time though so the freight price may not be exact. Also varies depending on the exchange rate of course. You can buy each part separately and there are also bits without the pockets or without armrests.

    Enhances the GAME heap looks great and yes raising the bar. Mine are pretty damn ordinary money well spent to enhance the vehicle. Did the 70 pounds include the freight for the seat bases as well.
    Kindest regards
