Repro Door Trims

[Absinth]

Do you mean the early and late trim combinations and availability????

Yes, plus what trim was called and what trim was available on what vehicle. Plus a bit of other stuff.

Here is a pic of what Dash Original call HJ-WB Ute trim;



Would this one be better named as HJ-WB base model trim? A little more confused again.

By the look of that trim it is HJ ours is the buckskin one you first put up, will take a pic for you.

The HJ trims are easy to get done, but the HZ need to be vinyl welded, and the chome strip put in...the guy at Eastern autos has the GMH machine to do this...hense we got ours from there....even though they got lost and were a hassle to eventually get, they do a great job...

That is the style Andrew, original HJ ones however had a different textured vinyl across the bottom which I believe the repro's don't have. Sort of an artificial carpet look from memory...

Thanks.
The early HJ's had no arm rests as well, so I will want to have mine made up without the holes?

A clear photo of an original door trim with this carpet 'type' finish would be good if someone has it.

I am trying to decide which way to go with my door trims. I contacted Dash Original and was informed that they can't get the 63v Buckskin vinyl but can make them if I source the vinyl. I have just enough NOS Buckskin to do door trims but I thought that the door trim is made from a different type of vinyl. I also would rather keep the NOS stuff as it is enough to redo my seats that are good but old and may crack with some use.

Winner products have the 63V as pictured below and from what I can see it looks like a good reproduction. It looks a shade or 2 darker but could be camera, computer screen or my failing eyes. Has any one seen any of these in the flesh or compared them to original vinyl?

Which way did you go blocker? Were you happy with the result?

So my choices are....
Go NOS buckskin (If the vinyl is correct type) from a highly recommended trimmer.
or
Go repo buckskin and hope it close. ( why can't dash original get the same repo stuff?)

Thanks



Blocker,
I think this is what Absinth was talking about with the lower part of the door trim being different (HQ SS shown but you get the idea)

Hi, I was wondering what type of door trim a HQ belmond sandman had? Is it the HQ Belmont door trim or the HQ GTS door trim? does it have armrests? does anyone have any photos of these?

Cheers,
