So looking to make or have made the centre section of the headliner for a 56 Bug. Thing is the sewing etc for the 4 bows I can quite easily do but it's trying to source the fibreboard strips that glue and attached to the 4 edges of the headliner, that allow it to locate over the metal lip of the inner roof channels, which I'm having trouble finding to buy online.

Anyone got any ideas or what it would cost for a trimmers to do the work?

I'm too busy during the day to spend half of it on the phone and hence why trying to find something on the tinterweb.

cheers 🙂

theres a place in Sydney you can buy backing board about 4mm thick or try finding a trimmer they may have some old stock
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true
