Greg,
Take a look at the British Parts Locator at
http://www.britpartslocator.com/. I bought a MIdget Trunk Carpet kit for
$60 total ($52 plus 8). They mekae their own stuff, not resell stuff from
other manufactureers. I haven't received it yet, but I should get it any
day. I friend of mine got a MIdget interior kit from them for a VERY
reasonable price for a very nice kit.
This link http://hometown.aol.com/britplocat/page1.html has a picture of a
black spit kit. I'll email you tonight if I receive it today and let you
know exactly how it is.
YMMV.
Michael
