Ray,
You might want to send an email to http://www.john-skinner.co.uk/.
I ordered a seat re-upholstery set for my TR6 project as it is made to
original specs. I have seen photos of the kits and the finished project on the
6-pack forum and they are top quality.
My guess is that the interior panels would be as good.
Next year, I plan to order the 6 project interior from them as well.
Their stuff is usually made to order so there can a wait. Their prices are very
good but one does take a beating on the shipping!
