Hi all, i'm putting a new headliner into my '70 Mini K and am confused as the order of the support bows.
The manual gives the order from the front as red, white, white, white, blue, yellow.

The problem is when I removed the headliner which had been previously replaced with a velour one, the bows were Red, yellow, yellow, green, orange, brown.
Nothing like the manual states!!! :? :?
Is this an Australian version and are they in the correct order or do I have a problem?? :?
Thanks,
Powermat

I would go as they came out, if they fitted then, they'll fit now. Did the old lining have a good (though deteriorated) shape? If they did, then I wouldn't stress too much over them.

The colours may have faded somewhat perhaps, at least in the case of the white rods?

Thanks Mick
The original headliner fitted fine, I just thought the last guy might have mixed up the bows and as I had them out I thought I'd try to put them back in the correct order.
