Octy II vRS Seats

Brooner · 05-07-2006, 12:55

Has anyone noticed the mesh on the new vRS seats starting to fray a bit?

They look ok at first glance, but when you look closer at the seat, you can see stray threads. (my car has done 4k miles)

Is this common or is it my fat *** and jeans causing this?

This happened on my old RS with the white mesh.........

Seemed to do it with my Jeans or anything which was a bit rough.

Its annoying when it happens! Put it down to the way i slid into the car

All i can say is try and get in and out a different way? not easy if you are in the garage etc trying to get out the car.

Bum.

Happens on the new seats, too, eh? Had a fair bit of frey on the MK 1.

On a seat issue... What is the suede-like material and what would you recommend for cleaning the different panels? The plain leather I can figure out!
