Contact the usual suppliers. They usually do this with the kit. There are cardboard Trim Boardsand the covers to go on them. At least there were with the kit I bought a while back.

See James Paddock JPS924 - Hard Top Headlining -Complete Kit

or Aldridge Trimming Stag/HL - Hardtop Headlining Kit (http://www.aldridge.co.uk)

There was no padding, but this can be bought from local fabric suppliers.

I got a kit from one of the ususal suppliers for the back shelf trim etc. But you could buy/scroung some vinyl, card and thin foam, and DIY it. You can make almost anything yourself and save lots of money, but sometimes it do'nt look so good if you havent got the right equipment and/or materials.

I always fiind I reach a limit on soft trim when something needs machine sewing. But my sheet metal work skillhas gone from strength to strength since I replaced and fabricated the completetop rail (and B post pieces too). The pressing is very complicated, and took me days of cutting and tryingcarboard templates, then tweaking the final steel pieces into shape. Since then, nothing has fazed me!

I still have the old trim as a template so i don't think that will be to much of a problem. However it is the vinyl that i am concerned with. I noticed when I removed it that it was stitched in order to obtain the profile and fit.

I have bought a new lining, unfortunately it appears i should have bought the lining kit complete. can I just confirm that the trim board's and vinyl covers are included?
