grey leather doorcards

[jonnybear]

Hi has anyone got grey leather doorcards for a carlton

Tar JOnny

[Matt]

The only door cards that were ever leather were lotus ones

You can get Diplomat ones in vinyl
You can get CDX ones in vinyl/velour
You can get GSI ones in GSI trim colours

I take it you're after diplomat ones

IMO they look very basic, as the whole door card is vinyl - I'd look for a set of CDX ones, much nicer

[jonnybear]

LOL, Matt, Just that my carpet door cards will look naff with the grey leath when i eventually get it, what do the cdx ones look like, and btw does anyone have a some nice grewy leather, front and rear, for about 70-80quid (hope noones insulted by that  )

Sold my last grey leather seat set (seats only) for £50 and it was rather mint too..... That's now fitted to bstartchild's GLi and looks great too!

So £70-80 would/should get you a near new set if it's just for the seats

What model have you got now?

Facelift CDX door cards are obviously facelift ones with the nicer bottom pockets, and with a nice grey velour piece on them, which matches the seats. Even if you ain't got velour seats, the velour is much nicer to feel/see than plain vinyl IMO.

Got a set for 40 - back and passenger seats are fine even the heaters work - drivers side surface cracks but with a feed and clean it would look very very good - buyer collects - if not sold it will go to the scrappy in the car

Surprised Bstardchild didn't pick this one up!

Lotus door cards arn't leather, they are alcantera (cream) as per pic:


The only door cards that I recall that are leather are the Diamond ones which are pleated grey leather, pic:


Personally I prefer the diamond door cards, I think they look more modern and I don't like the wood effect insert either.

BTW I have a pair of black carlton front leather seats (late CDX ones), the condition is verging on factory-new (I kid you not). Also have the diamond full black leather rears if anyone is interested, based in Oxford.

[jonnybear]

Umm Matt don't forget the Diamond, they are grey leather as well

[Matt]

yeah yeah yeah

I don't think those door cards aren't from a genuine lotus Johnny, It looks like they are from a pre-production car....

The lotus ones have pleats along the top and pleats in the middle, not stitches.

There's a guy called Phil Elmsley who has the same cards and they are off a V2 PP lotus.

I think that's why Ian isn't gonna go there

[Johnny A]

fair enough!
