    Anyone know where to source the red stripe seat cloth for my Tornado red mk2 GTI? A2resource calls it XU, Poppy red.

    Anna is one of the PVW photographers.

    She works at VW Heritage I believe but I can be corrected on that.

    I looked in all the normal places and I couldn't find It when other people have asked sure Amit of the LC was looking saw a post of his on Facebook a while back
    thing you would have to have a lot of people interested before it would be worth VW Heritage looking at getting
    maybe we should post up on face book to see how many are interested

    Bizarrely, and humorously imo, the same seat fabric was used in Mitsubishi Canter small trucks!

    An hour. They do outstanding work, but are pricy. They have a long waiting list though.
