Seat restore

[Rit]

I’m looking to get the seat recovered new foam etc on my Jota. There’s a guy local to me who makes excellent seats, and can make one, but not cheap and the Laverda script wouldn’t be the same. Has anyone had any experience with these?

His covers are excellent and as close as you'll get to OEM.

I ordered a cover for a 3C dual seat from Tony at Eldorado. He posted it 48 hours later.

JLOTECH in France also has some EDELRADO covers in stock - ordered one a couple of weeks ago.

You might find it cheaper and certainly no more expensive to order directly from Eldorado.

Cost me 120 euro including postage from Australia. I'll let you know for the import duty but I'm sure I'll come out first.

Hi, and thanks for the reply, is this just for a seat cover?

Tony at Eldorado doesn't do foam - only covers.

for a couple of seats, they will do the whole thing from the base up, I was really impressed with the quality and the turnaround time.

Would be interested to know - ordered stuff before from Oz & it seems a lottery with the Austrian tax man. Have the same issue when ordering bits & pieces from England too.

Same thing with the French or British.
An administration will always be a very imperfect thing.

EU regards England as a 3rd country now since BREXIT, consequently anything posted from there to an EU has an import tax levied dependent on the value and the type of item. In my case I have had to pay the courier or post on import prior to delivery or the postman at the door. There is no additional import tax levied if the item is posted and delivered within the EU itself.
