Leather seats

I was given an option to upgrade my B Class with Full leather upholstery. I was wondering if any brothers here can share the colours they chose? Currently, I am deciding between cognac brown and faint red... My car is black.

Can anyone also advise me if they managed to get their door boards replaced with leather as well?

Any comments appreciated.

Hi, u mean yrs factory fitted leather or aftermarket? If factory fitted, choose cognac brown. Mine is not factory fitted, yes the side board can be with fitted leather as shown below. Please do note that my ride is diff from yrs. If yr SE is kind enough, change the arm rest same as per yr upholstery color too!!! Btw, my car is black too. If you wan to be super special, paint yr front dash board and both sides of yr central panel too, yes it can be done despite the material is leather but is going to cost u. I didnt do it, as i money not enough!!!

cheers

Cognac brown will look good with black interior :thumbsup:

The door panel can be changed to leather too as the whole thing is wrapped in fabric originally. I'm sure it can only be done aftermarket and not OEM.

I ever thought of wrapping the whole dash in leather...hehe >:D

How much you paid for this upgrade? It was quoted $6.6k last time damn ex and mine was stock so no option for full leather upgrade.

Bru mine is a CLC coupe is not a chio B class. Mine is not a cognac brown either, dun know wat brown is that as it is locally installed by the company name Tomo. U can pm me yr contacts, if u wanna to see it urgently as this is only two pics i can get hold of it. Go for cognac brown, u wont regret, since u have the option why not?? I wanted a cognac brown if i have the option. However, most of my kakis "ahem" love this matching brown leather seat with black...."ahem".....

Hi,

From what I know, the B-Class door panels cannot be replaced. The Leather will be for the seats only. (Unless Tomo has found a way to do the doors)

Cognac brown or red is also nice. ;)

Cheers

I heard its because of structural design, i.e. anti-crash metal rods by the panel..

The door panel is wrapped with fabric originally. The panel can be removed easily and there is no metal parts on its back. The fabric can easily be replaced with other materials. I've seen it myself when I got the door speakers replaced with aftermarket ones last time.

In fact, if I remember correctly, the B's Maintenance CD (which I bought on ebay) has a part on replacing the door fabric. I'll look into it again ;)

I did up my leather seats on my last ride with Jackspeed. Happy with their workmanship.

Bros,

Looks like I have no choice since I'll be registering my car tomorrow and I need to decide what colour to use for the seats. I reckoned I have to select brown. In addition, my SE refused to give me any rebates if I opt out of the full leather option (with the intention of doing it my own somewhere else) and he claims if I were to do my leather elsewhere, unless its from authorised C&C agent, my warranty might be voided as external leather house not authorised by C&C are not authorised to dismantle the seats which may affect the safety aspect of the vehicle.. I thought the B Class is able to have 80% of the seats removed? What safety gadgets are there inside the car????? Sianz.. I am feeling damn lousy even before I got delivery of this car...
