Default A pillars w/tweeter grill

Hey guys - just got some tweeters, and i'm putting them in the factory spot, but I only have the forte A pillars. Anyone in vic have any spare pillars with the tweeter grill?

Also i'm after the light grey ones, does anyone know the official colour name?

Cheers Nic

I thought they no longer made them, because BA ones pop straight in? They are the same A-Pillars aren't they?

Cheers

I am 99% sure that LG is right, the BA trims click straight in. I was looking for the same things myself a few months ago when i did my stereo, but just ended up sourcing a pair from a wreakers.
