Default Interior change??

can I convert my 88 to the Grand sport interior? i.e. dash, gauges, console, seats, carpet, steering wheel, door panels. etc....
is this possible? if so where can I get it done? I'd love to have it and money isnt too much of a problem.

Maybe -=Jeff=- will chime in here. he switched his older style to the newer dash with a few small snags here n there.

That'd look nice for sure.

You can, but it's a lot of work.

Well, you are looking at $500 for carpet,$1200 for door panels, $1200 for seats. The Dash would probably be a used one, so we'll say $200. The console pieces run around $250 for both, you'll need the proper plastic pieces to mount the console carpet to. The dash cluster, don't know about wiring, seat belts if the color is changed, all the other plastic trim pieces. I'm sure I left out a few things, but that's a start.

We build an interior upgrade kit for the 84-89 Corvette C4. It looks alot like the 91-96 and a C5 interior. Please go t our website http://www.c5west.com for more pic' and details. You can but a set of the newer seats on eBay and they will bolt right onto your curret rails. Check out the pic's of the silver interior on our website.

thanks guys. and Mojo, I was planning on buying all that anyway so i figures I'd spend a little bit more and convert if it was possible. :yesnod: C5West, I looked at the site and I like that dash but it's not exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks anyways!!

Default Re: Interior change?? (britvette)

ok. after looking at jeffs vette I want to do what he did. convert to the 91 because it will be cheaper and look almost the same. where can I buy the parts needed for the switch? I know about door panels, dash, etc. I just need to know where I can get the adapters or clips needed.
