does the original Cooper S (1967) have press weld door trims, or were they stiched??

The reason I ask is I have 2 sets of trims in good condition, one pressed weld and one stiched.
Thanks

I reckon they would be press welded - that's what's in my Deluxe (and AFAIK they are original).

Stitching is performed by auto trimmers who don't have a hot wheel..
