HI Paul - always a wealth of knowledge - thx - don't know if remember me, but I purchased a Red XB GS coupe approx 3 yrs ago and have posted questions during my resto of which you've answered approx 99% of !! Can send you pics if you are interested. Nearly there now, just got the interior to do - no part of it has been light on the hip pocket I must add !!! I'll contact these guys and let you know how you go. Struggling to get anyone to do the coupe door trims as per original parchement trim. Cheers & thx again - Harry

Hey mate,
always happy to help another coupe owner going through the pain. There is another mob that do the coupe trims and they are very good. Just can't remember their name. If you get no joy with these links drop a line here and I'll do some hunting. Would love to see some photos of your car. Will send you a PM.
Paul.

I would STRONGLY recommend Dash Original in S.A.!
Might take a while, but definetely worth the wait.
Have heard and seen bad things from some other places,
and the other half out source the stuff elsewhere.

Hi 302 Superbird - I have contacted them already - and you are correct, they want approx 4 months from time of purchase. Being in MEL, I really cannot view any examples in the flesh either. I have a hunch that Polyweld are the only one in AUS that actually manufacture these door trims as everyone has the same lead time of approx 4 months. I also understand that you cannot buy from Polweld direct anymore as they are now a wholesale business.
Thx again for your reply.
Cheers
H

Did some asking around and was told there are at least 2 companies making the trims. Polyweld and Dash original were mentioned as being 2 different manufacturers. Mate of mine has purchased from both companies and said both had good quality with the dash originals being just a little bit better. Hope that helps a smidgeon.
