Title: Boot Separater Board and Firewall Board Post by: oldgrey58 on March 09, 2021, 10:45:07 PM Hi all,
i'm seeking advice as to what others have done to replace or rejuvenate the fibre board that goes at the back of the boot behind the rear seat and the (what looks like to me) heavy cardboard used under the dash on the firewall. Can these be retreated to get the waxy look and colour back? Or are there replacements available? Also, where can you get those metal serrated clips that hold the cardboard to the firewall? Thanks in advance.

I have plenty of the original clips in my collection of stuff. I’ll look them up. Ken Title: Re: Boot Separater Board and Firewall Board Post by: oldgrey58 on March 13, 2021, 04:14:13 PM Thank you again Ken.
Also, would anyone recommend a trimmer? I'd prefer Melbourne south east suburbs if possible but not essential.

He might be able to do the rear seat partition too.

I've been doing a web search with no luck and found a previous post that confirmed they are MIA http://forum.fefcholden.club/index.php?topic=21426.new In that post there is a link to an ebay site that is still active that sells repo firewall boards at $500. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-AUSTRALIAN-MADE-FRONT-FIREWALL-INSULATION-PANEL-BOARD-SUITS-FE-FC-HOLDEN-/151777973202?hash=item2356ac13d2 I'm still to track down a trimmer so any suggestions are welcome.

Title: Re: Boot Separater Board and Firewall Board Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on March 17, 2021, 11:14:48 AM You can get trim board from Daleys who are in most states, this is the closest material to original that I have found and use it for door trims, glovebox liners and boot boards.
I contacted Classic Gloveboxes a couple of years ago expressing interest in their firewall board patterns as I heard they were winding up, they told me they still going and that is the last I heard.

Title: Re: Boot Separater Board and Firewall Board Post by: Errol62 on March 19, 2021, 08:55:59 PM Martin Frigo, that is Obsolete Rubber Co. Daleys or your local trimmer should be able to help though.
