A rather large bus has just written off my missus' N reg 2.5 V6 CDX Omega saloon, but I have a nice looking CDX estate at auction that she can have instead.

Does the entire Saloon leather fit properly into an Estate?

I really should know this, breaking as many cars as i do, but i can't remember!

Fronts will fit fine but the rears do not.

Fronts the same, back seats different...

[Galahad]

Is it possible to remove the leather covering off the saloon seats to go onto the Estate seats?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I'm thinking not, they are shaped differently. The headrests are a different design, and I don't think saloon seats fold flat, whereas estate ones do. On the facelift omegas, they don't have a 'hatch' in the estates either.

Prefacelift leather shouldn't be hard to source cheaply and easily though?

My estate front seats don't fold flat ? Well I don't think they fold...

Apologies, I was referring to rear seats!....rear saloon seats don't collapse.

You are quite correct though Weds, elite front seats don't fold flat, but, to increase the load length of the estate to a full 3m you can wind the passenger seat backwards to get a more usable space (but, i'm guessing you knew this!).

Interestingly, the only vehicle that came with a PROPER fold-flat front passenger seat was the CDX, on the facelifts at least. Even more bizarrely, all the 'roadwars cop car omegas' that you seem to see on the telly have a fold flat front passenger seat!?!?! I presume this is for the donuts, coffee and fish & chips etc.....would be easy for a tea-leaf to hop out though!

The back ones should do...unless the facelift ones are not designed to do what in an estate is effectively their job...

I've broken up an S reg pre facelift CDX estate that had a fold forward passenger front seat.
