I removed that nasty bread box as well. Here is a picture of the DIC cover and power seat cover, I also started adding gauges in the center vents.

CORVETTE in red vinyl OR you can use the inserts that you can buy for the bumpers.

Looks very nice with the bread box removed.
I want to make this change to my 85.
Can anyone tell me where to get the replacement inserts and a procedure for R&Ring this.

Cheers

On my previously owned 87 I cut out some 1/4" plywood and glued/stapled some padding and white vinyl to it. I then used a spray dye to match it to the interior. The L98 emblem came from Corvette Central and is usually applied to the rear bumper.
I made the mistake of dying the dash but had to change it back to original as it reflected and glared something fierce on the windshield.

I took apart my dash and the breadbox was just a piece of syrofoam in my car
