I just received a package tray from ECS without speaker holes per my R11 code and noticed the grain is not like an original I had that had the rough style of the backside of Masonite. The grain is more like a boars grain. Also came in an REM labeled bag and no provisions for the clips which I though ECS had on their package trays.

Question is what is the correct grain, bottom line.
Thanks!

While not an E, my Scamp's original tray (Windsor built) had the vinyl look. I used the commonly available part when I restored the car and was dissappointed that it had the rough look you think your original had.

I did buy one from ECS, and it's much closer to the original. My original was considerably thicker...but once installed looks pretty good and much better than the previously available repo. My original had two clips that pushed in (looked like a button from the top) holding it down.
