BaileyMex Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 Does anyone remember who sold these rear MK1 shelf covers? advertised as a "flexible material", Pics still showing on Google Images but cant find the seller anywhere. Look familiar? Image text is: "£57.00 GBP*·Brand: not specified - Mk1 Escort Parcel Shelf. New mk1 escort shelves made from a flexible material very close to the original" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DT36 Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 I had a fibreglass shelf for my MK2 from GS Escorts. Really well made and good fit. Actually better than my original shelf. They also have MK1 shelves in their shop, but more expensive than yours above: https://gsescorts.co.uk/Escort-mk1-rear-parcel-shelf-brand-new-reproductio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaileyMex Posted March 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 HI mate Yep I've seen the nice Repro ones available, this just just a thought for a bit of an experiment, and as they were cheap it wouldn't matter if it didn't work. Cheers tho👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers tho👍 I'm currently doing a small van out for my bikes and am using 4 way stretch carpet in the rear. I know this is not original and a purist would shit his nappy, but this stuff would look really clean and nice on the inner wheel wells/arches and back shelf. If you have a rotter of a back shelf as an experiment , I might have some black left over in about 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaileyMex Posted March 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 I'm thinking about putting the original rear door cards back in, currently there are MDF rear door cards housing 6x9 speakers, but I was never happy with the finish, especially with the rear cage. plus you cant hear them with the 40's on full chat 😈 My back shelf is pukka, so I don't want to cut it, so thought about some kind of alternative shelf cover solution that I could cut about and not worry about wrecking original parts. These seemed a cheap option to cut about You'll have to whack up some pics of the stuff once you have finished it, sounds like good gear 👌 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notenoughtime Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 I bought one of those flexible ones for my mk2, it’s ok but think I’d rather spend the extra on a better one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
