Seatbox / wheelarch upholstery

Post by carrera1977 »

Hello all,
Does anybody know if the black padded vinyl that was fitted to the cab interior wheel arches and around the seat boxes is available?
They where available for splitties a while back, is somebody remaking a solution for T25?
If not, what have people done here, please post some pictures..............

It isn't. I used some rubber trim that I had left over from the edgr of the pop top and worked it along. Looks alright and robust. :D

Fabric backed. I Did it in bits. Under the middle of the dash, footwells, back of footwells, middle handbrake bit, Round the boxes in one piece ( take your time and work this one out as they are all external corners which makes one piece possible, then down the arches. Make sure you put the trim on the edge first before glueing if you are going down that route. :D
