I would have thought Aus supply via Scheel. Scheel were the same suppliers used for the RS2000 Escort front seats.
I know of another Bathurst Cobra owner who had to go down the same road as you and I think all that they could manage was that of a close as possible match. Put more simply, the original was just not available. Your other option is to start ringing trim shops (lots of them) and see what they have. I was going to mention trying the website but I see that your car is already there. |

Thanks Paul for your advise, I will try & contact Scheel & see what eventuates
I have done the ring around & the Escort car clubs to no avail As you say we may just need to go to a close possible match or go with the beige & hope it can be dyed Has anyone else had any experiences with dying this type of fabric? Again I appreciate your input |
