Has any one found a source for these materials? I can only describe them as a knitted pattern like headliner but seems more durable. I see them wrapped on pillar trims and in unseen/corners of the seat upholstery where it conforms better than leather/vinyl. Any help would be great, Thanks
Sorry for the late reply the forum wasn't working for me for awhile and turns out I had to update chrome for it to work correctly. The material I'm looking for is in all new model Mercedes and is in just about every vinyl and leather interior as a side trim cloth. I do have the veteran sample book but they do not carry the cloth but when I called they could get it from the mill in Germany but at a 1000 yard minimum, which is not what I'm looking for (they can also get any hides that they don't have for a 50 hide minimum if anyone was is interested). I ordered some sample books from Albright's supply to expand my cloth options because of Detroit Fabrics going out of business and I found a perfect substitute in their Gen Z collection! I'm attaching a few photos of the cloth I'm looking for and what I found in the sample books. While I'm here I also wanted to ask about if any one knew the source for the u clips that they use- I've seen aftermarket seat covers have a flexible pinch welt that they can sew as an alternative and I would also be interested in that but would definitely want to carry the cloth/plastic ones used by various oem manufactures domestic and imported. Thanks a ton!- Spencer
