OK then somebody has to explain the difference between Comfort Weave and Madrid Grain.

When I look on the usual vendor websites they indicate Standard cars had Comfort Weave which looks like a cloth finish and Madrid was for Deluxe cars which looks like a leather/vynal finish.

There are two different pieces. One rides above the plugs like an umbrella. The other wraps around the outside of the plugs towards the fender, kind of sheilding them. Mine was missing the shields so I added them back on. They are a PITA. '75 L-48's only had rear shields, no front ones. Check the AIM for more details.

I read somewhere that all convertibles had Comfort Weave regardless of whether they had the Deluxe Interior or the standard interior.

Otherwise, Comfort Weave to match the vinyl seat pattern of the standard interior and Madrid vinyl to match the leather pattern on the Deluxe interior.
