E21 parcel shelf

Post by bewo84 »

Hi all.

Am in the process of restoring an 91 316. Have stripped the interior and removed the parcel shelf. Was wondering if anyone would have any ideas as to where i could source some houndstooth carpet to re trim it. As it literaly looks like my parents beige carpet at the mo!

Any ideas would be welcome. All i can seem to find is clothing, rugs or swatch samples.

Many thanks

Hi B. I can't for the life of me find the place where I ordered mine from, but you're basically looking for German Weave carpet, which was common in a lot of 80's cars and not houndstooth.

I did find this place that might give you a few pointers.
