MG TD TF 1500 - seat upholstery

I'm getting old, and hoping that someone can help me with my fading memory... Not that long ago i'm sure that i viewed a short video on rebuilding a TD front seat, but for the life of me, can't remember where... Can someone please let me know where i can view such a video???

thanks...

Gord's method is excellent. I firmed up the original latex pad using Gord's method and I am so glad i did the seats came out perfect and now are comfortable to sit in.... Thanks Gord.

If you Google "Youtube furniture clinic" you will find a number of videos showing how to restore the leather a seat is made from. It appears even the worst is still reconditionable. Gord's posting showing how to repair the "insides" of the seat are great.

I used Gordon's method too. Worked great!

Are the TF seats similar to the TD seats in padding? PJ

Hi Paul,

The Cushion part of a TD seat is virtually the same construction as for TFs.However,the Squab is totally
different.

Cheers for now.
