My factory seat skins. Worth selling?
I've had my interior re done and now I have my factory black leather seat skins and don't know what to do with them. He actually replaced my drivers side bolster that was damaged with some matching off black vinyl I had for my rear seat delete project.
They're in pretty good condition, no rips or tears or even really not cracked. I just wanted oatmeal seats! I know the new skins are over 700 but these are in such good condition and if someone wanted to just do one seat, it should match the existing one perfectly.
AND from what I've found, the passenger seat from my car would fit the drivers seat in UK.
Any idea of price before I list on ebay?i was thinking 200 plus shipping.

I would buy them if I had a black interior and I hadn't just redone my seats. If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost you to redo just the seats on your new interior?
Your old seat skins/covers are definitely worth selling! The cheapest brand new seat skins/covers on eBay with Jaguar leather are $560. List them at $230 free shipping and you should sell them in no time. Do you have pictures of them showing the condition while they were still on your seats? Those pictures would really help sell them.

this shows the seats condition. They look good. Just the normal creases but no cracks or rips. And the drivers back bolster has been replaced with matching vinyl. My interior was way too expensive. I had the seats done in oatmeal leather with custom black top stitching and had my trim shop guy add black piping. I covered the door inserts and speakers (myself) in a matching alcantara suede. All added it was around 1450.00. Not including the rear seat delete project. Add another 225.00.
The two pictures are fine just make sure when you list them on eBay you take a few pictures of them off the seat as well and add both to your eBay ad to help them sell faster.
That was expensive! I must say though your new ones look great, I love the color! I would do something similar to that but my dog loves to ride in the car with me and I know he'd just ruin them so I can't justify it. But I did a cheap do it yourself job replaced my tan ones with some leatherette/vinyl replicas. Cost $380 when I was done, they came out perfect though, you can't tell they aren't original.

Yeah, my dog loves to ride too but she's not too big, part jack russel and Italian greyhound. But now I carry her to the car from the house to keep her paws clean!! Lol she loves the new rear seat area since it gets her high enough to see out!

Mine probably weighs the same as me, maybe a little less. Difference is his paws dig in to the seats. I think he's an old english sheepdog mix...

So, both seats are in good condition or just the passenger?
I don't understand the condition of the driver seat leather and bolster. Is it patched?
My cashmere driver seat is cracked, and my passenger side is ok but leather is hard under the thighs. I previously considered buying used black seats altogether thinking color ok since exterior paint is black

I'd definitely say they're worth selling. I've been watching the market on several parts from these cars on eBay since I'll be selling quite a few things this summer after all of my cosmetic upgrades are done (dash veneer, steering wheel, Audio and nav stuff, rims, etc.). There seems to be a pretty substantial demand for X100 stuff.. sold my OEM radio and shift knob within 2 days for a decent price.. I was pretty surprised! I'd make sure to list shipping to the UK as an option though so it shows up on the UK site when people search for them.

My seats are in good condition pasenger in the best but drivers good too. The drivers left bolster is replaced with matching off black vinyl. Slightly noticeable but not bad. Stitching matched. I'll post a pic when I pick up the back. I'll also ask if he has the console cover as well.
Here's my interior changed.
Can you send a pic of the driver seat bolster area that was patched?
Could I use the door inserts above the pocket that you eliminated?
I need a pic of console cover as I cannot visualize it in my head

I'll pick up the covers tomorrow and post pics. The drivers side seat has a replaced piece where it gets rubbed when getting in and out. It's matching off black vinyl and its been professionally replaced with all stitching matched. The console is the lid between the seats.
