Kew Coach trimmers in Southport, One man band up a back alley, completely retrimmed my car 7 years ago, roof, carpets and leather did a fabulous job for £1400.

The centre panel is quite easy to re-trim but for the hassle you may as well spend the money and get it done by a pro who will have the fabric, the tools and the know-how before making a decent job. He will need your old panel as a pattern too.

The best thing is to shop around for a decent price...
