I need a pair of front seam strips for my pick up.
Are the Minispares ones a good fit or is it best to pay more than double for 'genuine' ones.
I know that the pattern ones I've had in the past (not Mini Spares ones) have been variable in quality and fit.
Any help appreciated
Andrew

Hi
Just used the primed Minispares ones and they were fine...oe ones are slightly better on the rears though
Cheers
Kevin

Thanks Kevin, thats good to hear
I think the rears always were worse than the fronts as they never seemed to be able to roll them evenly. I have plenty of rear ones but no fronts
I'll give the MS ones a go then.
Cheers
Andrew

I agree, fronts are better than rears.Minispares pattern ones are OK.

They are made of thinner material than original but fit ok,
