GTS get the luxury version sunvisors which are longer and swing right around and cover the whole side of you , and then clip into little clips that are screwed into the inner roof frame . Brougham ones are essentially the same except the passenger side ones gets a Vanity Mirror . Prem , kinga and Belmont are all the same "short type " HK use Golf Ball Grain (except HK Brougham which uses the HT ribbed grain for some reason ) All HT use the ribbed grain . HG all use the Roebuck Grain (except maybe some late commercials that may have swapped over to the ribbed grain after the intro of HQ , but i have nit seen one . Classic Automotive Products will be making the HT ones shortly (long and short , but not brougham mirror type ) , the sheet plastic to make them is finished as is the die , its just a matter of making some frames . We will have Blue , Sandalwood and Black first . HG ones wont be that far away , and HK later in the year when that gets made . Its expensive to make them as each colour of each grain costs $8-10K to run the plastic alone . www.monaromuscleparts.comEdited by user Monday, 22 February 2010 9:25:28 AM(UTC)

Prem is same as King/Belly I always assumed the Monaro ones are longer because the screen is wider at the top, and used in Brougham because they are fancier/more luxurious/better coverage |

Wider at the top ? A Monaro front screen is slightly lower in height than the sedans, so it would be slightly narrower if anything. Dr Terry _______________________________________ There are 3 types of people in the world. 1. Those who can count. 2. Those who cant. |

Hi Terry, Think about it, it would be wider. |
