Title: Door Cards
Post by: FC0058 on November 05, 2009, 12:56:57 AM
HI All
Can some one please tell me where I can get my self a good set of repro door cards for an FC 225, I have seen a few different ones on the market from time to time. I have also seen some that do not really fit that well and others that fit just like the originals.

Any recommendations welcome.

Cheers Jim

Do you want just the cards (to cover yourself) or the completed door trim?
I cut all of mine from good template (old trims gathered over the years) out of MDF, I have never had a problem with fit or finish. If you're not much chop with a jigsaw there are sets on ebay from time to time or I can knock up a set for you.

Stinky / FC427

I am having the car retrimmed, its kind of a rush job as I am moving to Adelaide in December and have just over 3 weeks until my car goes on the transporter.

I am quite handy with a jigsaw however have no real good template to follow.

I Have sent an email to Betta Auto Rubber as they seem to be the mob that have repro cards for holden.

I will let you know how I go and if I need your very kind offer of assistance.

Regards Jim
