Garry I have had RHD wood from SLS and Millers in the past,both sets did not fit well at all.
Haven't really found any other good supplier.

I have used the SLS one and it actually broke in one corner.  Now that I am doing another car, I was wanting to get it right this time but the only other source appears to be KCI Germany and I think he is using the same supplier as SLS.

Would use a really good second hand set if I could find one but like mine most are in a bad way.  The cost of restoration is greater than the new ones from SLS.

Garry i might have one, i'll have to check over the weekend and get back to you.
I have a couple of sets left over from 4-5 years ago.  I think one of them is a RHD.

They fit properly, just depends now if the ones i have is RHD.

Hi Kay,

Have been able to secure the dash to window woods from New Zealand.  What I am after now is the original wood speaker piece if you have one of those>
