    All,
    As per another thread these trims are very hard to come by. There is a company producing these in the Ukraine.

    They are $55 plus shipping etc.
    However I’m thinking it must be possible to get these manufactured in the UK.
    So before I waste my time researching etc etc who would be interested in these if they could be made at a reasonable cost. Also, what would a reasonable cost be to you? I’m thinking £25-30 bearing in mind manufacturing these days is not a cheap enterprise.
    Let me know your thoughts.

    How about if a friendly CGTI member living in an English Speaking, but eurozone place like Ireland was to get them and send on to his "friends"....?;)

    That would be good but I think $55 plus postage to the friendly CGTi member and then to the UK will be too much for a piece of plastic.

    I confess that i paid more than that for delivered one. But there comes a point when you have to bite the bullet. Plus this a life time car for me

    For sub 30 I'd be interested, have you considered trying to make the scuttle panel trim also - seemingly made from the same material and equally as shit/always broken?

    A repro version of the hard later type scuttle would sell like hot cakes I reckon.
