Post subject: | Roof lining Bows |
Re-doing the roof lining in the Mini (1972) and want to check I have the bows in the correct position. (They are not the original ones from the car and have been in and out a few times). I have 4 different types and they came out in the following order from front to rear: 1 “flatter” one that was at the front. Then 3 the same. Then 1 a little shorter. And then the shortest at the rear. Looks OK to me but can anyone confirm if this is correct? |

Hi Bill, I will check the colours, but I have 6, not 5. Could it be 2, 3 & 4 green, then it would line up with my lengths. |

Hi Bill, Those numbers line up with mine, but not the colours. From front to rear I had red, yellow, green, yellow, orange, no colour. But mine may not be a set due to the car history. The green one looks the same as the yellow ones. Do any have an orange one? Which manual do you have? Dave |

I think those colours refer to the English cars. It will be interesting to see what colour yours are. But it looks like I need to get a proper set for mine. |
