Title: So Cal/San Diego Upholstery Shop Recommendation
Post by: clm69z28 on October 04, 2018, 12:14:53 PM

I have new/NOS deluxe comfortweave bucket seat bottoms and a rear seat Comfortweave panel insert that I need installed. Anybody have a recommendation for a local shop?

 I am in North San Dieg County,

I had some boat upholstery done years ago by Mark Luhr (Mark Luhr's Custom Upholstery) in El Cajon.  He did great work.  He's been around since the 70's street scene days (as have I  ;) ), and has a good reputation.

My $.02 worth...

I've used Jim's Auto Upholstery in Kearny Mesa quite a few times for my Chevelle and other cars.  They do a lot of classic cars.   Good reputation.  But as with any vendor, just be very clear on expectations.

I ended up finding a local upholstery shop called Blind Squirrel upholstery in Oceanside California that did my work. Mike Stratton is the owner and I would recommend him for any upholstery work.
