- Console and dashboard repairs
- Seat repair

- Replacement of polymers (plastic pieces)
It Starts with Detailing
Many of a vehicle’s interior issues can be fixed with a professional auto detailing. We mention ‘professional’ because it seems that ‘car cleaners’ come a dime a dozen these days. But that doesn’t mean the service provided will be of top quality. A specialized interior repair show will provide the following detailing services:

Rips or years of being parked in the sun can seriously alter the look of leather seats. It can also take away the luxury of leather seats.
The main thing that shies the customers away from paying for interior repairs is the cost. Although most services are reasonably priced, even the more expensive ones should be considered.
