Hi,
Our 850 and V70 both have leather seats. The driver's leather on the 850
is breaking down due to use and sunlight. Since the dealer replacement
covers are rather expensive ($ 600 and 400 for the back and bottom) does
anyone know of a place that they might be obtained at lower cost (used
possibly)?
Thanks, Brad
 
Find the local independent upholstery shop - that's where the dealer will
send your seats and they'll probably double the price they paid the shop.
Cut out the middleman. Based on what's happening in my area, you should pay
about half what the dealer quoted you and your seats will look better than
new.....

I have a lady who does interior work at our car lot. She can do wonders with
leather and vinyl seats. Contact a detail shop or dealer in your area and
see if they can reccommend someone who does that kind of work. Usually less
than $50 a seat. She does 3 or 4 seats a month for me and I am very
satisfied with her work.

Hope this answer isn't coming too late for you, as I just saw the question.
There is a place that sells them online, custom made for Volvos, and at (what I
feel are) very reasonable prices. I don't have the info with me now, but I can
send it to you when I get home tonight; I ordered some fabric samples from them
and have the info at home.
 
Hi! Sorry -- it's Marathonseatcovers.com. Good luck!
