Has anyone on the list ever re-done (or more to the point, paid to have re-done) the upholstery in a westfalia? I have a decent candidate (albeit overpriced) near here, that has had the tan upholstery re-done in a sort of bordello red that I don't think I can live with. Front seats, back seat, rear jump seat, rear mattress, and presumably the upper mattress as well. The rear removable carpet, and the mats are red too, but this is easy to replace. And covers on the front seats are not really an option, as the arm rests are now red too -- a very thorough job indeed (although the door panel inserts are the original tan). So I'm thinking have it re-done, so anyone with a ball park figure on this sort of thing, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks as always. TJK -- Todd J.
