I currently have a 1991 B534 Hymer with the rear U shaped lounge.

In a couple of weeks I'm collecting my new 1991 S660 hymer, also with the same rear lounge layout.

I will be needing to get some new seat cushions and seat back cushions made for the S660 rear lounge.

2 questions please:

1) Does anyone know if the seat cushion dimensions on the 534 lounge are identical to the seat cushion dimensions on the S660 lounge? If so I could use my B534 cushions as a template.

2) Can anyone recommend a place in the North West (I am Preston based) that can make and then cover new seat cushions from foam layers as close to original spec as possible?

Any words of wisdom greatly appreciated.

Thanks

You could try a domestic upholstery company , the principle cant be too different. I'd see if theres a review website, then that could give some info. Alternatively just visit the premises and have a look at some of the work they are/have done.

Sorry about the lack of recommendations, but, if nothing else it'll bump it up even more.

I had some washable stretch covers made for my Hymer from new last year to protect the original plain blue velour cushions by www.cbscc.co.uk. They are in Bristol but will make up the new cushions and permanent covers either to your measurements or you can send the originals to them (they send you the packaging to return to them) and they will make up the complete set and send them back to you.

Very happy with what they did for us and they have loads of letters of recommendation on their reception walls.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Viv ! I should have spottedthat !

Gerald; I think Elite only do replacement or recovering of the foam. We want a removable washable stretch cover to go over the top of our lovely but very impractical cream seats. At the moment we have a homemade set made from single fitted sheets- very effective but very boring !

Many thanks Mike. This is the first company we've found who do this. It's surely answering a real need - or are we the only messy feeders around ?
