Well Im in the process of reproducing the rear headlining strip and the bows.
Also thinking about doing the head lining also. So it can be supplied as a complete kit. Or just the bows and rear strip.
Along the bottom of the head lining it has pinch weld correct?
Issues I have is what different colours where there? Also how many different textured finishes?
What colour was used for the pinch weld?
Cheers

Pinchweld along the bottom yes... need to find the correct grain though.
Pinchweld is the same colour as the trim code which is generally the same as headlining colour.
Two styles of headlining, ribbed style in HJ to early HZ and then the sandpaper grain in late HZ. If you have the later grain style dashpad then the headlining is the later style as in Commodore.
Available headlining colours are listed in the parts catalogues.

Headlinings are in group 14.640, page 763 in the HX catalogue.
Also easy to look up headlining colours in the trim colour charts in the front of the parts catalogues, pinchweld colours are called windlace in the charts. These charts tell you which colours for each trim code. Only 18V and 19V were available with neutral headlining and if headlining is neutral the windlace (pinchweld) is still black.

Hey GuysOriginally Posted by Absinth
I thought that I would ask some questions here..
"Neutral" Headlining.. What colour is that?
Is the windlace (pinchweld) mentioned in the same group in the parts book?
If so, what colour do they list?
cheers
Mick
