i dont get the pricing, its 215 for bottom seat skin, the both of them, or just one? also, it says 850R bottom seat skin under both pictures, and the one on the bottom should say "top seat skin"

Oops, Thanks for calling that to my attention, just fixed it.

Yeah it's each. I know it seems like a lot but it takes time to make them and I don't skimp in the quality of the materials. Just finding "nice" hides in the right color is very time consuming. With the new 1/4" foam lining the seat feels firmer, refreshed and like new. It amazes me how well the cushion foam holds up after so many years. Just more proof of the quality Volvo put into their cars.

Sorry, we aren't set up for mass production. We are Volvo enthusiasts who want to offer quality craftsmanship to other Volvo enthusiasts. To mass produce, machines and personnel need to be added, and after your group buy we're still sitting here with all of the overhead. But, we will do everything we can to deliver to the market as it develops.

Of course, if you can provide us an irrevocable letter of credit from a respectable financial institution, in good standing, for 500 units per year for a term of five years we would most likely be able to meet your needs :D .

Thanks for asking though.

haha, ok, but by mass produce i mean like 20-30 seats for various people on all the fourms, maybe you should make an account on the other sites to advertise and see if you can get some interest.

Your link to Ebay add only has a Reserve not met bid at $90.00. How much for the complete seat cover?
