They are elf/hornet pockets.
ABS motorsport do a copy of them if you can't find originals.

Ahh yes, thanks for that - I doubt if anyone does a metal one now, or the trims - shame because they look good (and practical)

I don't think they were ever metal.
Proper shaped trim may be difficult, but seam trim could work OK

Yup, their mk3 elf / inno pockets, a good bingley find 15 years ago.

I have a set for sale, been hoarding them for my other Mini but decided to keep it as per a sports pack.

What materials were the originals constructed from?

 

I'm not a fan of interior trim constructed using fibre glass. In the event of an accident,God forbid in a classic mini, I'd quite like whatever my body parts came into contact with would yield on impact.
