Steve, They are all a bitch to fit. I bought mine off Mini Classic, but it was well before Greig Malaure took over, when they used to do restos for export to Japan. I would ask John at Mini King, or just take that 1970 sun visor I gave you to a motor trimmer, have them make one, AND fit it... 
When my Fiat 124 Sport needed one years ago I got The Little Trimmer in Castle Hill to do it. Nice job, but it wasn't cheap... |

See this thread for more background, including my post about the missing piece that goes under the rear window. I haven't fitted mine yet so can't comment on the quality of the material or cut. http://www.ausmini.com/forums/viewtopic ... highlight= |

The fit seems great, i wasn't there when he fitted it but im very happy with it. Its fairly tight which means no creases. I messaged the buyer and told him to include the piece thats under the rear window. |

Bought and fit one. It all depend on what you are after! they are cheap, and they look cheap. In my case it is cleaner then the original one, and clean up the car well. Have a trimmer to fit it as it's a C*** of a job and you wont be please with the result. Having say that, if you are about a clean up, they are great value for money Louis |
