Re: header trim

None that I've heard of . . . yet.
Which is kind'a surprising because it's one of the most requested 3rd gen vert interior parts ever.

HEader Trim...
Is that the plastic piece between under (over) the sun visors? Or the piece on the leading edge of the top where the clamps are?

Re: header trim

Probably the one on the car side (windshield header) but someone needs to make both pieces.

Re: header trim

I agree! My header panel is ok but the trim piece around the release levers on the top has cracked where the screws are.

Re: header trim

Yeah, I also believe he meant the trim piece. When someone is parting out a vert, that's usually the first thing to go.

Re: header trim

It took me over a year, but I finally got lucky and got one on ebay. Just keep it in your watch list there and eventually you might get lucky! When I got mine it was a seller's dream -- I just put $250 for it because I needed it that bad, and it went for $210! Probably takes $10 to make the piece, but you know what they say about supply and demand....
