Question Interior Wood Replacement

Can anyone recommend a shop in the San Francisco Bay Area that has experience in replacing the interior wood components in 107s?

wood trim 107

I've had great luck with Performance Products in Van Nuys, Ca. replacing the wood trim on my 107. They have just about every piece of wood in at least 2different styles...and they also offer complete kits as well. Click and paste the link below for their web site.

wood for 107

BTW...if you're mildly handy...you can replace the wood on your car yourself. It's easier than you think, and you'll be able to save a lot of money as well.
Except for the center shift console wood, and the climate control frame, everything else is adhesive backed. The shift console is usually the piece to replace, and the most expensive. Make sure you replace the rubber framing around the shift housing..its only a few $'s and looks great new. And if you still have the stock black plastice shift knob, grab a wood knob for under $80.00....its a world of difference
