my 850 had stitched blue trim in the rear and glue hension backed black vinyl in the front.
I liked the look of the stitched front door trims from Newtons. I will soon see what it is like when it arrives

Hi all, Does anyone know if you can get original or close to original felt insulated backed vinyl as per the original 850's I have got some stuff on the engine bay side of the fire wall that i got from Bruce at MG Sports Parts at Thornleigh years ago, but it is quite glossy and i would like it in a mat like finish. I currently have door trims from Newton Commercial and they are board back vinyl like a deluxe/K/S door trim and i just dont like it that much. Grant |

The hessian backing was just glued to the outer door skin and the trim material glued to the hessian |

Because the rears are common across all Oz minis your stitched rear sections probably came from a later car. There were no later stitched panels that suited 850 doors so the POs just stuck with the originals. UK front and rear panels weren't "stitched" rather the lines were formed by frequency welding... That's what you are looking at in the Newton ads. Cheers, Ian |
