    I done my BT, I didn't have my blind done as it really didn't need it, once my lining was fitted it doesn't look odd, the only thing that was out a little bit out was the rubber trim that goes round the sunroof edge

        Sorry yes the blinds are different, the BT is louvered unlike the ST, cant see it being a problem to a trimmer though....??? Then again I'm no trimmer.....

          Think iam going to try the alcantara route, and request a sample from here.
          will 4mm foam backed be ok? And anyone know what size you need?

              Sounds good, foam backed seems best bet, was just wondering how thick, can't really think if there are any tight contours etc on the lining panel? So won't need to be too thin.
              will try and measure mine next week to see how much material is needed.

                            I also have a complete electric sunroof cassette to go in as well, so will probably do that at the same time change from manual to electric.
