Seat backs

Is it possible to get new plastic backs to the front two seats? I'm just about to buy a second hand evoque and the previous owner had kids who have scuffed the backs.

Cheers!

I would guess the dealer could source but I wouldn't bother if I were you they scratch if you just look at them! Really soft cheap plastic.

Best to ask Dan at Duckworth parts.i guess they are available,i never did find how to get them off when fitting my dvd screens.

I understand completely where you're coming from, the seat backs on mine were pristine, until we took the mother-in-law out, who, rather than putting her metal studded handbag on the seat whilst she got in/out, decided to dangle it from her hand, and push herself off from the back of the chair (we've got a coupe, so access is tight).
It is true that like the outside black plastic trim, the seat backs appear to be made of cheese and do mark with relative ease.

I would too probably buy and replace to 'start afresh', but you'll weep when you get that first scratch on them... and I doubt they'll be cheap!

I would go with Racing Snake on this, if you have the Ebony seats then some Amourall
Might recolour the scratches for you........ I would save the replacement until just before you want to sell the car to avoid disappointment with how easily they get damaged.

It's worth drying one of these "magic erasers" (found in most supermarkets). It's like a very fine sandpaper & help take the sharp edge of light scratches. It will never completely remove scratches, but is great on these small marks that just spool the look on your plastic trim.

*****please try it first on a small area out of sight first*****

Because of my kids I have these clear sheets to cover the seat back. Look awful, but do the trick
