Is this for your Lake Green 'S' ? I need trim for a Lake Green S too. The one I will be restoring had door cards the same as those shown below, which would mean the seats are different to those you have shown. Body number is 32##, Chassis 37## 
Others have said there was a change over date to the trim you have shown, so those seats might be right for your S. |

Your right around the time the upholstery pattern changed from the first type to the second type, which is the type in the ebay pic. These should have the door trims etc with the 8 lines not the rectangles. There are others who are of the opinion the upholstery pattern changed earlier so you pays your money and takes your chances. I am going on what I observed at the time. I used to take a great interest in any Mini or Cooper S I saw around the time looking for any differences to my first 66 S. But then the memory dims over time and when there are different opinions out there then ??? RonR |

Chassis number 3906 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... :RTQ:AU:11 thanks Brett Yes those are the correct ones ones , they changed over to that pattern seats sometime in late 1965 or early 1966 . My brother had a late 1966 Cooper S , which had those seats and the door trims have the 8 lines on them . I have some pics of it somewheres , if i can find them . Pattern changed again in late 1968 to Mk2 type |

GT , your S is a late 1967 early 1968 going by the numbers . Seats should be the same as those in the ebay pics , and door trims should have the 8 lines , not the rectangles as in your pics . My Lake Green S is late 1967 , around October/November , car number 31## . It has its original door cards and seats Edit : According to Watto , the Lake Green S had 2 trim colurs , either Green or Beige . Mine has the biege , which is actually called Doeskin , not sure what the Green is called , Brett may know |
