Junkman Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 Well, I had enough of this seats for servants nonsense.Either my kidneys were freezing, or I was simmering in my own juice, or the Junkwoman's legendary vegetarian farts had nowhere to go.What finally pushed me over the edge was, when my little one got out of the car with her back all wet and sweaty. I felt sorry for her.Hence I now got me this settee for posh people: Once this is installed, the original pristine (and I do mean pristine) black leather furniture will be up for grabs.So if there are any masochists on there, that are keen to upgrade* their 405 estates, please feel free to arrange to pick it up from SK3 0LX,before I flog that rubbish on that iPay.Before I forget, the front seats are heatable. All you need to do is wire them up and fit some switches somewhere. warren t claim, Lacquer Peel and RobT 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacquer Peel Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 The 405's leather seats are nice but I don't 'get' leather seats in a car, sweaty in the summer, freezing cold in the winter, made from the hides of tortured animals.

If you regularly carry people with body odour issues, then the smell can transfer onto your cloth interior quite quickly, therefore the leather alternative is very attractive in this scenario due to the ability to be cleaned and fed easily and quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkman Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share Posted April 27, 2016 If you regularly carry people, leather will quickly lead to them having body odour issues, which doesn't occur if you have a proper cloth interior.Leather is either too cold or too warm, but never an ambient temperature.Besides, I have heard of people having frozen to death, or died from a heat stroke, but nobody ever died of smell. purplebargeken, Jerzy Woking and Lacquer Peel 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Bell Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I really like leather seats. Unfortunately I dont have a a 405. Or £150.I'd probably try them in the 205 but everyone would shout arsehole etc. Junkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bub2006 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 As I said at glossop I do like leather interior but I also hear sentiments on here. Many a holiday was spent sliding round the back seat of a Volvo 240 glt as a child on freshly shined seats. Junkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forddeliveryboy Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Gaffer tape some perpsex or polycarbonate in, it's 200 times stronger than glass. And the expensive cheap Chinese parts may last longer. You could fit a sliding bit in the middle for ventilation/finger gestures, race-style. Junkman and Sheefag 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binhoker668 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Hmm, would the leather front seats possibly fit a Xantia? A terrible council estate mod i know, but i like 'em! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacquer Peel Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I think so, Vulgalour fitted 405 front seats to the autoshite bike Xantia. binhoker668 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bub2006 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 The xantia has 405 front seats but rears are different. Junkman looked at it in glossop other night. I think front seats are a bit high too but that may be usual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkman Posted July 1, 2016 Author Share Posted July 1, 2016 This is what should be where the holes in my front bumber are: The problem now is, that I can't sleep before these are reinstated on mine.I mean, it's one thing to have headlight washers.It's yet another, to have James Bond headlight washers.

Timewaster Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 My Mi16 had headlamp washers but they didn't do that.

Jim Bell Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 It's weird having lamp jets but no wipers. Suppose I've been spoiled with lots of old volvos which seem to have lamp jets and wipers as standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlo Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I have one headlamp washer jet cover Mr J but can't find another one anywhere. So my car looks rather lop-sided. Junkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
