MG MGA - Green Piping

My 58 MGA Coupe project is to be Island Green as original. I have the seats recovered and one doot panel intact along with some other bits but I wish to put in a new interior. Does anyone know of a vendor for interrior kits wit the green piping or just a vendor for the green piping?
Thanks

Carl,
Why don't you call Scarborough Faire. I bet they could do it in any "colour" requested..

If you can find the vinyl in the color you want, you should be able to go to any auto upholstery shop and have them make some up for you. Cheap. If they do lots of custom work, they may even have the color green you are looking for. Bring a sample if possible.

Good Luck

The piping is just vinyl upholstery material sewn around a cord. Any upholsterer will be able to make some up in whatever color material you can find. If it's a concours restoration, the exact color from the factory (if they came with green piping) would be necessary. I'm sure someone here can steer you right on that.
