Charles River Saab - sort of Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Thu, 18 May 2017 03:20:07 In Reply to: Re: Ordered a new driver's seat cushion leather skin today, Dave The Ice Age Knave [Profile/Gallery] , Wed, 17 May 2017 20:02:50 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Charles River Saab assumed the business of another Dealer in their local area, a Dealer who had built an on-line eParts business. It may be 'SaabPartsUSA', I don't have the e-mailed receipt handy.
Seat skins are strangely priced and not uniformly available. Prices for the same part will range from the low $200s to over $500, and will show as NLA at many eParts sites. I have resorted to googling the Saab part number, then checking every link that displays.
The inserts are apparently bonded leather rather than full grain leather, as are the side bolsters. Regular and often applications of a leather conditioner are mandatory - as I have found out the hard way.
Gee, I wonder if I can find a Viggen seat skin somewhere?
