Roof Lining Clips

Whilst doing some rolling repairs on the 110, I've decided that whilst the headlining was out I would re-cover it to get rid of the mold stains that had appeared due to various leaks (some of which have been found and cured!).

I've used Silver Veltrim and I'm pretty pleased with the results. Only problem I've now got is that the original Fir Tree trim clips aren't long enough anymore. I need some that are at least 50mm long.

I've done a search on google but not had much luck...anyone else done this or have any ideas where to source some?

Thanks Daz, I emailed them earlier and will see what they come back with but nothing I can see on the site long enough.

I did the Google trawl before posting but couldn't find any longer than the standard length. Worst case I could strip the covering where the headlining panels overlap but that risks an exposed edge and I quite like the idea of a seamless finish! 2002 Defender 110 CSW TD5

Did you peel off the old lining first? If not you will soon be sitting under a big grey soggy cloth canopy. The glue just won't stick to it, particularly when sat in the sun
