Boot cover
I have seen a few finished cars with a leather/vinyl covering over the boot area, mostly they are fixed to the rear panel with poppers. Does anyone
know where these kind of poppers can be purchased? most of the upholstery shops near me only have ones suitable for fabric i.e. how do you fix them to
the steel/ali panel?
Cheers for any help.

Your local camping/caravanning shop should have these poppers also.

Thanks for the help, i will try the places you suggest. Probably as well to wait until after the Christmas thing passes.
I would be very surprised if there was anyone North of me building a Locost, there is a guy nearby building a Locust - but we will not go there!!
Anyone north of me is either on Orkney, Shetland or wet
BTW - thanks for sending me the contact number.
