Default 93 Triple Ruby red corvette convert interior

Can some one tell me why the door panel on the drivers side is red/ black and the passenger side is red? Looked on e bay at 3 others all the same as mine. Just seems strange to me

That is the way all the door panels are from 90-93 no matter which color.
And they are not exactly a like either.
Don't know why they did this.
Here is a pic of mine in white.

I can tell you exactly why the interior is like that. By design, the interior was designed to give the driver a feeling of being in their own cockpit, it does this by wrapping around the black plastic. Take a look and you'll see the what I'm talking about.

Merry Christmas

I keep it clean by constant upkeep. Always wiping down and cleaning with a toothbrush with Meguiars cleaner/conditioner.
Definitely not maintenance free interior...
But worth all the extra work....

Sorry daniagn, didn't mean to hijack your thread...
