I like the coral interior and was thinking about putting it in a FJ40 I have. Does anyone know where the best place to purchase it is? I have seen more of a orange colored coral interior from metric TLC and Sor.com has coral, however it looks more brown in the photos. Any suggestions on where to purchase. Which color is closer to the original? I also have seen some stories on mud about metric tlc. Your thoughts

I have the last of Metric TLC's vinyl. It was custom made to be a perfect match to the original vinyl. I can cut you a little swatch if you need something to compare.
I only have enough for one more full set of early 40 upholstery so I don't intend on selling it!

Thanks. That looks great. On the website it looked darker and I wasn't sure I liked it. Yours looks great..
SOR. It's coral, not brown. I think it's a great match. Nice quality also.

I had a set made by Shane (MetricTLC) a while back for the late model seats and a Con-ferr bench, the material was really nice. Here's some pics but not the best light. No idea what happened to Shane?

Gabe, part of that SOR delivery I got was coral covers for my 45. I can shoot photos later or even FaceTime and let you set the color in and out of sunlight. I think they're super quality and close to original color.

Love those 45's
How was the fit I need some for my 45...
Not sure yet Skip. I just received the package a couple days ago..... BEFORE the 45 making it here. 
I've got a good buddy delivering her the day before Labor Day. Stay tuned.
JP can chime in with first hand experience on fit an drew finish!

When you get a chance get a pic for us. Skip
Inside/shade. The foam. And in direct, bright Louisiana sunlight. Hope this gives an idea.

Way way nice. Is yours for a 45?
How much if you don't mind me asking.

It is on SOR's website. $650 I think. That's vinyl cut to exact specs, piping, and cushions designed for the 45 specific seat frames. I've seen the finished product on 45s. Looks great.
Those seat covers look very nice. Is it just the picture or are the ribs all different sizes?
I installed at set of gray SOR FJ45 seat covers about 10 years ago and can attest to the quality and fit - they were excellent. Hope they still are.
I think I can source that vinyl if anyone is interested. Would you mind sending a tiny little piece for comparison purposes?
Thanks,
Dave
Does SOR sell insert material (Coral) for driver and passenger door panels? Thanks!

Early cruisers that use the coral interior do not have interior door panels.
