I am looking to have some roll bar padding made, along with purchasing some extra carpeting for the rear seat to hatch area.

Anyone know of any good, but reasonable shops? Thanks!

I've had lots of luck with Jax seat cover on 6th & Bolivar in Milw. I've never checked if he does rollbar padding though. I assume he does though.

Actually, I had issues with Ericksons. I couldn't comfortably recommend them to anyone since they almost burnt my car up.

Yep, They left some kind of paper backing material on the elements that caught fire. It burned a hole through my seat cover. I have to admit they did attempt to fix the problem and replaced the leather that was burned and said they replaced the element that caused the problem. This all occured in spring/summer of 2008 even though my warranty expired in december of 2007. They fully admitted to me that it was their installers mistake that caused the problem.


Fast forward to this winter the seat wasn't warming up correctly. My warranty was long over with so I took my car to Jax seat Cover to have the seat heaters replaced. I just didn't trust what I had anymore after the last issue. When Jax opened up my seats, they found only one half of the drivers seat element was replaced. The entire passenger seat and the drivers seat back element still had the paper on the elements that caused the burning in the first place. When I called Erickson's to ask why they only fixed 1/4 of the problem, his excuse was that the other elements worked fine.
