Default Finished with my interior swap PICS!

Well I final got done with it today. Well I still have to come up with an idea for the back "trunk" area. I知 thinking maybe like a truck bed Liner. But I知 not sure yet. It took about two weeks to swap it from tan to black. I was working out in a parking lot and out of an apartment so I think I did pretty well. I also have to give thanks to my wife for helping me

Looks great!
Man that sure look like a tight fit!
How about the tracks and what did you have to go thru to adapt?

The tracks are what came on them. Lucky for me they match up to the metal inserts for the factory seats on the floor pan

Nicely done. Even the yellow inserts on the door panels look good, given the other interior yellow panels.

Are the seats comfortable? enough padding?

Did you just have the stiching redone in yellow with the lettering? or did you recover the seats in a different material?

nice job

I just had the seats restiched and they are pretty comfortable. One thing to note they sit about an 1 1/2in taller cause of the padding
