  12. Hello, The seats in my Cortina are the wrong colour for my interior - they are more or less white and I want them to be beige. So, are they vinyl or leather?? Either way, can these be treated / dyed to the colour of my choice? Also, will it last or run off on my cloths?? I just can’t afford to get them recovered so this is my only real option to sort this issue. Come on BSC help needed here please 🧐 Seat covers are making my teeth itch.

    The rims were new from eBay - The hub caps were shipped over from SA and were blue. My good friend Paul took them and respirated them for me. Unfortunately they were too big for the rims so a local garage sorted the rims to take the larger hubs.
