Does anyone know of a source for the correct speaker cloth for the front kick panel speakers in the 356SC? I'm in the midst of a restoration and the chromed surrounds came out like new, the metal mesh cleaned right up as did the housings. Of course, at this point the cloth is too dirty and tattered to really use, now that the rest looks so nice.

Any source/help?

Thanks !

OK, now I'm confused . . .

I was able to locate some speaker cloth that's dangerously close to the original, got all of the pieces ready to test fit prior to assembly and searched for an image or two of 356 interior/kick panels to see how things ought to look.

I found a pic or two of speakers with cloth on the facing side, and some images of the cloth on the backing side with the metal "grill" showing, and a few with random wire/metal grills that looked nothing like my originals.

Any help with this one? Maybe a close-up pic of an original car or correct restoration. Just wondering . . .

Thanks !
