Headlining colour in GLT saloon

Post by Ride_on » 29 Jun 2016 11:27 pm

Does anyone know the valid colours available for a MK3 GLT saloon headlining?

UK Hatchbacks seem to have black (in other threads) and I'd like that, but needs to be valid (so that its not my fault if it looks bad).

Any GLT saloons I can see in photos are white, and I think this might be deliberate due to the rear quarters being headlining rather than plastic like the hatch.

Also anyone know the colour code of black or white used?

There is nothing in my 86 brochure.

My 86 SE is white and my old 86 GLEi was white, so maybe all saloons are white. I can't remember ever seeing a saloon that didn't have the white headlining.

As said on Facebook - all GLT saloons had white headlining. The black does look good, but the white definitely makes for a less dingy interior.
