Scotland 2014 Freelander 2 TD4_e Dynamic Manual Fuji White
Retrimmed rear entertainment system

A couple of years back I purchased a brand new genuine Land Rover rear screen entertainment system. I've now just got it retrimmed as it was in coral reef (green/black) cloth. I initially opted for pimento leather with double stitching in black but had a change of heart once the headrests had been sent down. Mainly because their was no guarantee that the pimento would be an exact 100% match for the pimento used in the dynamic and their pimento was perforated. I luckily (before they started the job) managed to get them retrimmed in ebony leather with double stitching in red. I'm very pleased with how they have turned out. They will also send me out a free bottle of leather feed so pleased with their service Thumbs Up

Hopefully it will be a good match but will not know until the car arrives

Any decent trimmer will be able to supply pimento leather in either solid or perforated finish. Also if the sample book states Pimento, it will be a match.

When I have my headrests done from Alpaca to Ivory, Steve at Classic Car Services just ordered the factory Ivory leather and it is a perfect match.

But personally, I think you have done it the right way round. It looks more factory as you have had it done. Pimento headrests with black top stitching would have looked odd.

Looks excellent the way it is! Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

Nick, give Steve Hartley a call at Classic Car Services. He has done all my 11 re-trims!
