Wasnt an easy job!

Ok, i bought an original non sunroof lining thinking it would fit and all i needed to do was cut the whole. Wrong!!

So i set about unpicking all the stitches and used it as a template to make my own. Bought some material for a tenner and the results speak for themselves!!

I went to a local fabric shop, scouted about till i found something suitable. Took a b pillar trim with me so i had something to compare to. Cost me £10.

Go to a trimmer with yours and ask them to copy it. They'll prob match he factory stuff or get something way nicer. I have black velour.
