Thanks OldMM. I'll check to see what my local upholstery shops have in stock. And thanks Marsal for the breakdown of the different trims available. If I strike out at the upholstery shops, JC Whitney is next.

1. Plastic smooth chrome full length. GFZ107.
2. Fluted plastic chrome full length. GZF105A.
3. Black rubber textured used on later Mini's along the sill between the flares. Not shown.
4. Smooth black fluted plastic usually used between the flares (maybe aftermarket). GFZ108.
The pictures are not very clear so before ordering i would talk to someone to make sure you are getting what you want.
I have got the black textured from JC Witney before but it has been a while.
I have also seen the door edge guard used which is available in black or silver from your local parts store in 20 foot rolls but it is a little narrow but also far easier to install as long as you don't have over sills installed (too thick).
If in doubt, flat out. Colin Mc Rae MBE 1968-2007.

I buy mine from a local upholstery/trim shop, it has small metal clips inside that makes it hang on-
I pay $2.00 a foot, usually buy 10 feet, cash,no tax and there goes another $20.00
