Wind deflector tonneau

[Essex Stag]

Hi all as the time is now approaching to abandon the hardtop and resurrect the soft top . To preserve what little hair I still retain I am planning to make a wind deflector from 6 mm poly carbonate with a hardwood stiffening batten along the bottom edge what I require is a supplier of the light tan or biscuit ambla material to make a tonneau to cover the rear seat area . Can anyone point me in the direction of a good supplier that will match the colours within reason. When i have completed the task I will post photos if it works

Hi Derek , I believe there is only one supplier for your requirement , which would be Aldridge trimming ! Regards Graham

Hi Derek, Before you do any cutting of expensive material, I suggest you post a sketch of what you are designing, to solicit comments. I am sure I am not alone in having qualifications in vehicle trimming, and would be willing to review your design. Regards Alan

Hi, Derek
If you put in Google ambla , leather cloth. Or vinyl you will get lots of results .they will probably send you samples, you even used to be able to buy Basket weave as on our seats off the roll already sewn or pressed into the cloth .And as your from London their are quite a lot of upholsterers up there and if they have a shop they will have pattern books and sell it by the yard.
Good Luck
Michael.
