I don't know the official name for it but it is just a piece of wood covered in the vinyl trim. You can retrim it yourself quite easilly "if" you can get the screws out that hold it to the seat back. Alternatively, you can do as I did, and sand the wood down and varnish it to match the rest of the interior wood.

Also, the back of your seats are covered in carpet. If i was to buy the traveller boot carpet set, from say bullmotif, would that be included do you think?

Yes, Bullmotif offer the boot coverings in either the original "Hardura" material or in carpet - just tell them which you want.

Thanks, it looks Awesome!

Thanks - I was looking for some pics of the whole boot area but I can't find em

I does look quite neat and tidy though (when it's not full of junk)

the black "runners" look nice against the red carpet.. how do you find the paint lasts?

So far so good. I was expecting them to scratch easily but not so. I used an etch primer on them first then top coat with enamel spray paint which I baked in the oven

No, that's her peering over the seat in the photo. Just don't tell anyone.

LOL - I won't be telleng her about that reference

She is very understanding - fortunately- however, if it is my turn to cook dinner I can get away with all sorts of other oven jobs

Hi Luke, have a look at ESM's site,they have a nice felt/PVC set (Part no. T100A) for the back of a trav, it's light grey which should go well with your light blue interior.Covers the wheel arches and the back of the seat too.Like PSL I also sanded and varnished the wooden rail along the top,with brass upholstery screws it all looks rather spiffy!
