how did you guys make them stay in without falling out, did you do the bottom bit where you can put stuff and the side bits that fold too?

clubman ones are a bit different, well mine are anyway, mine dont cut off below the ashtray part. I think ill wedge a piece of wood down the bottom to hold it up better, because just sliding it in the slots wont hold it up properly i remember mine kept falling downl.
If anyone wants i can go measure mine and post templates on here

You do actually say in that thread, and I quote "Use you old door trims as a template..........."

So, back to the original question, has anyone got a template I could borrow?

I have mine out of the car, whats the best way to 'template' them?
I am happy to measure them but cant really trust how 'correct' that will be.

They are just to big to scan... hmmm

If you have anyideas Tricky, I am more than happy to do it.
I think I have the rear complete for clubbies (the rear trim, vinyl around door pocket, etc...

Ill try to make a template in the meantime, but let me know ideas for making templates guys.

Cheers,
Peter.

Thanks Pristic!

Sticky tape a couple of sheets of A4 together, and just trace the outline.

Fold up and stick it in the post! :wink:

Place the card on a flat surface, and take a photo from directly above its centre. Take measurements off the card, and draw those onto an A4 print of your photo. Then scan the result.

Not exactly a template, but probably good enough to make a replicant...

thats the only way to go, or you could just go to your nearest mini shop or wreckers and get an old door trim...
