New Lounge Leather Seats Installed!
Here are some pics of my new Lounge Leather seats that I have installed in my 08 Cooper. They are replacing my heated black leather originals which are in near perfect condition, but I have always thought the Lounge Leather seats were very comfortable. I couldn't resist the chance to get a set when I found it. The originals are listed in the Marketplace if anyone is interested. They will be cleaned up over the next day or so.

Thank you! I have those molded rubber mini mats in the front and I made rubber mats for the rear. I would love to get carpeted mats but I feel indestructible with these rubber ones. I found a guy in Pa who deals with seats. He just happened to get these in and I couldn't get my mind off of them. I was shocked how quick I could swap them out. It is so incredibly easy.

I wonder is your guy has an extra set laying around… I searched on eBay UK and they want almost 2k for the front and back and they won't even ship to the US. As for the mats… I too have an all-weather mats for the winter and spring season. I will switching to carpet mats as soon as by late spring. Rubber mats track a lot of footprints versus carpet mats that camouflages it but still needs to be periodically dusted or vacuumed.
Congratulations on your new seats! For now, I will dream about it until something comes turns up.
ps… there is a local upholstery shop around me but I am not too keen about the downtime. dude said they will need the car for a week to do all the seats.

Do you have the contact for the PA seller? How much did you pay for the seats?
