What part of the country are you in? I can recommend an upholsterer in the greater Boston area, (the one who did my upholstery to match my Recaros).

Wett is the Audi of the chips and Neuspeed is the Dodge Neon

Ahhh, the great chip debate: No definitive answer as to which is *best*. I have Wett though &amp; I love it!

I think the better analogy is Wett=Audi, Neuspeed=VW

Default Hoppen - MTM

I think Hoppen- MTM chip is better - My opinion. I have MTM stage 1 and am very happy with it.<br>The dealer mechanic has driven my car and a Neuspeed one and says MTM is much better - I have never driven a Wett or TAP though.

Default Not true...

Someone on the 1.8T mailing list (he actually has a Passat 1.8T) had his seats reupholstered in leather and they were able to do it even though his car has side airbags. They apparently developed some sort of stitching process which does not interfere with the side airbags deploying. I'm afraid I do not remember the name of the company that has this feature, but it is possible to do.<p>Andy Hedin<br>'97 A4 1.8Tqms, Wett 1.0 Bar Chip, ABT Filter, Euro Headlights with<br>PIAA SuperWhite's, A!AvantGarde Grill, Smoked Side-Markers,<br>Clear Corner-Markers, Tint<br>

Default Re: Not true...Hey Andy, you have a pic. of your A4 you could post? Cheaper to buy 2.8 seats or aftermarket?

There's a local company called Classic Soft Trim (they're actually a national company), that can do it for bout $1200.
