Taking my 94 Sprite back to the original dash and I'm in need of a lower (and maybe upper) dash liner in black. Could easily get a new one, but kinda fancied second hand so it looks more 90s. 

 

Can anyone help?

as in the dash rail covers?

 

i have got a pair but to be honest they arnt in great nick.

 

bottom one is just a bit tatty on the inside (which you wouldn't see)

 

top one is pretty good apart from a split in the top right and top left corner. 

 

Ideal candidates for something like this though:

Ah, no, it was the black vinyl tray thing that stops all your stuff falling through the dash

You'll probably struggle to get half decent second hand one's, particularly the card bulkhead liner as they often get damaged on fitting and removal, and basically being made of cardboard, they also tend to absorb dampness/water over the years, so are often stained, swollen and misshapen. I searched around for these second hand for months and in the end had to go with new versions from Somerford, as all the used ones available were in a terrible state.

Also, the lower parcel shelf liner pictured is just a floppy foam backed piece of vinyl, so you'll probably also need a pair of stiffener panels to go beneath the liner, if you want the parcel shelf to look remotely flat or actually use it for carrying anything. http://www.somerford...roducts_id=8136

Thanks for the advice. That's what I love about the Mini Forum - someone's always done it before you and folk are always willing to give the benefit of their experience. 

 

New it is.
