Late spring clean

So, a bunch of other stuff was going on this spring and I never had a chance to spend a couple of hours on my annual interior deep clean and seat rotation. Decided today (93*) would be a great day to spend a couple of hours in the garage. Thought I'd bore y'all with some in progress and finished pictures. I think I lost 10# in sweat out there.

I was surprised as I know by your post how attention detail oriented about correctness you are that I could find something

They were with the car when I bought it over a decade ago. I see they're available from Keen Parts.

Leif, it looks like you treated the dash and dash pads pads with something. What did you use? They look great !

Did the seat change + cleaning the carpeting, but it took longer than a couple of hours! I did change the seat irons and seatback trim. No time for pictures as I was shot

.
Yours looks fantastic.

Finally rested enough for pictures.

It's a lot of work but, IMHO, worth it. I do this, once, every year so I know what I'm getting myself into. Certainly more pleasant to do it in the spring, which I normally do. Thanks for the compliment!
