TR3 Leather Seats Restored the Right Way | Industry Benchmark Standard | Talkin’ Trim w/ J-Skin

Описание: 🧵 Fully Trimmed Front Seats for the Triumph TR3 – Originality, Upgrade Options & Trimming Advice!
In this episode of Talkin’ Trim w/ J-Skin, Jonathon Skinner walks through a fully trimmed pair of Triumph TR3 Front Seats, part of a full interior upgrade for a US-based customer.

We compare TR2 vs TR3 seat cover designs, highlight originality points like white piping on inner and outer edges, and explain the rare dual-tilt frame setup found on this pair. The seat covers are made from Full Leather, not to be confused with “leatherfaced” options from other suppliers. Matching Leathercloth Piping is also used for enhanced durability and authenticity.
