I got mine from here, great service and a great product. Silver Tinsel is a little smaller that the other colors, but I like the understated look of it.

Yep, I got the Silver Tinsel too and love the look of it... I need to get some red and try my visors though! That looks good!

I just asked the local upholstery guy for some and he gave me 20' that was nuetral colored for a a price of $0.00. I used two coats of bulldog adhesion promoter and then painted it car color. Just shove it in the seem and it holds in place as the temps warm up it will stick like glue till you yank it out. Works well if you have the interior upgrade with the viynl on the door panel. The deluxe models are a bit different and you must work to make it stay little differently. example the cloth welt can be glued to the deluxe door panels.

It is definitely an eye pleaser for this mod.

Anyone know how to get in touch with Stan? I've sent a PM and an email with no response for several days

I can give him a call at his new job. He's working LONG hours now, and can't access the site from his work. Please don't give up on my man!

Deric

I tried contacting him a couple of times a few months back but didn't hear anything so I went with MrMikes.

MTAS

Thanks, I'd appreciate that!

Any word whether Stan is still doing this?

randy_tho

Surely there are lots of places to get this stuff?

rony1976

I sent him a PM a few weeks back, no answer yet. I'm looking at other options at this point, gave up on him.

05fordgt

I just spoke with him, and he will check the site either tonight or tomorrow. He's just been consumed with work right now, and he will get in touch with those who want the welting.

Deric

Again MrMikes has silver tinsel.

I still want it, can you tell him to reply to my PM? I need an idea on pricing.

Thanks!

Anyone can do this. Just go any upholstery shop, the stuff is dirt cheap. If you want to paint it you own color, ask for nuetral colored welt. If you want tinsel, silver or what ever than ask for that color or style.
Get yourself at least 20 feet for the doors and 30 feet if you decide to stuff it in other creveases such as the headliner or the dash.
The welt sells by the foot, it Just depends on your local upholstery shop. When I asked they gave (nuetral) to me for free.
I painted the welt car color with a spray can I bought from a hobby shop. With free welt I was out $25 for paint and the Bulldog adhesion promoter.

Good review for Mr.Mikes!
Understood when I accidentally double-ordered, answered my email about it in under half an hour.

With the excess silver tinsel from the doors, I might trim the shift boot.. just need to figure out how to get it to stay since it's not a press fit.

Mine is not staying in the corner in front of the window switch plate, I have the silver tinsel. Should I trim some off the bottom of it, or notch it to swing the corner? Don't want to take too much and not have it stick at all.

roushed

i'd trim some more ..maybe add a 'v ' to it so it closes more..Robert

Vista blue so i went with white
