Ek ute headlining

Post by Rodder rob »

Does anybody know where I can purchase a EK ute headlining? There was a guy on eBay selling them but I havent seen them advertised for about 6 months. I was hoping to get original star type fabric if anyone has any ideas about this I would appreciate your feedback.

G'day Rob, welcome to the forum mate 8) I have a mate who is a trimmer - he bought a premade one from over east and had to modify it to fit properly, do you have the original one out of the ute to use as a template ? You may be better off getting one made at a trimmers.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Hi Rob,

I believe the headlinings were being done by Super Trim. If not they are still worth a try.

I'm told that the pattern used is not exactly the same as the original but close.

That's where mine came from and also my armrests. The trimmer who helped fit my headlining said he would have had a bit more material as excess to help fit but it did turn out really well with a bit of percerverance. It was a sedan though.
Speed and Style........... One day I'll get the speed bit.

If Super Trim give you grief I can stitch one up fairly quickly, I think I have a pattern already, for $140 plus postage.
