Hi members
I need to replace my 64 cooper headliner. It's the 2 piece! has anyone found a replacement that matches the original Aus material. I fear that it may not be possible as these cars are so old. If anyone can direct me to a supplier, for example Minisport, That would be appreciated.
Regards Alby :D

Newton Commercial do a good replacement for the UK 2 piece liner. Minis use the "cream crackle" colour.

Can you do a close up photo of the Oz pattern for comparison? Or you could ask NC to send you a small sample to compare with yours.

Cheers, Ian

Hi Ian
Thanks for the lead. Yes thats a great idea! I'l defiantly do that. I could also send to other suppliers to help guarantee a match.
Cheers Alby

Newton also do a light grey which is closer to the Australian made Cooper headlining material.

Were ours crackle or the 'chequer' style? I have one here with the latter.

Hi Mick
The aussie headliner has a checkered style grey pattern. I believe the cream crackle is only UK
