 I have seen Waynes car and this bloke is good.He has done the front seat on my FE wagon (under resto) and I will be having my FE sedan seats ,front and back, done by him as well in the new year. The sedan is currently using the wagon's front seat, which we had at the xmas party.

What about a good Motor Trimmer in Melbourne for the Vics? Has anyone had good first hand experience lately?

            The guys at Eastern auto upholstery in Bayswater Vic did the roof lining for my wagon in original type material & I would highly recommend them.

thanks Wayne - will keep this guy in mind.

What sort of prices did he charge you? Did you shop around? Did you find him on the cheap or expensive side?

thanks
Jamie

hello CHO576,

I have just seen the new headlining installed in my wagon, I used the type that Glenn used.

Looks really smart and I paid a trimmer to install it along with original style windlacing.

it was expensive around $500 for hood lining not to mention the installation costs.. but it does give an excellent result.

Cheers

Ed

HI cho576
     He is very good wiyh his prices and does not take long to do. He did the whole interior in less than 2 weeks. The roof lining he put in mine looks or most original.
