Ray,

I have never replaced the interior in my TR3, but I did a complete interior
replacement on our Morris Minor Traveller (seats, panels, & headliner).  We
used a kit made by Newton Commercial. It was excellent quality and an exact
match of the original '69 materials with heat embossed accent lines on the
door panels.

I got it from my Morris parts supplier, Morris Minor Center (Bath) Ltd. in
the UK, not from Newton directly. If they make TR4 kits, you will not be
disappointed.

hello all,
I received a panel kit for my early tr4 today from moss, and I must say I am
disappointed.
I am not saying it is a terrible kit, and it DOES sort of approximate the
original....BUT there are significant differences between it and the factory
panels.
where my door panels and wheel panels (and others) have a heat embossed
accent
strip, the moss kit has a cheesy series of stitches that sort of reminds one
of how the originals looked.  or of a fiat interior in the 70's.
I think I will return this set, (and by the bye, the price wasn't cheesy)
and
seek elsewhere.
before I do send these back, does anyone have knowledge of anyone who makes
the panels with the heat embossing?
this is for a early tr4 convertible....
Best,
Ray
