Not been available for years. Rimmers may still have some door cards but the last of the seat bases went years ago. Seat backs a long time before that. So you'll be left to scanning eBay or talking to the TRDC to see if anyone has any they'll part with.

Green - It's the best, in my opinion, followed by Tan, Red and then Grey - or was that Blue at one time?

You have to make sure the material is UV resistant, suitable for auto seats. I've seen a seat made up with a very nice charcoal weave but after a season or two in the sun was already disintegrating.

Just received this from an auto cloth company


I have something close here. If you send back your postal mailing address, I’ll send a sample. If you want it exact, send me a piece and I’ll make it for you. It definitely fits our system.

<i>"It’s close. Just not exact. As we say around here: “I’d use it in my car.â€￾"</i>

I told him he doesn't know the Wedge crowd
