Looks like she could have come from the factory like that. Top notch installs. Tasteful and subtle.

What I think is pretty cool is that I've changed over 100 things (no exaggeration) to this car since buying it and most people who see it think it came from the factory that way. This car screams for an APS turbo system doesn't it?

Thanks for the comments, it's nice to know that my taste is not offensive to others. If the car ever ends up on Ebay, I'd hate to be called out
The best I can come up with, is that that's an odd place for the homelink install. And I'm a jerk!

Nice job..GM should have done better when they designed the interior...Any change has to be an improvement...I still don't understand the manual seat back adjustment...even my crummy 300M has an electric adjustment..as usual the question is " WHAT WERE THE GM DESIGNERS THINKING.? " Answer.." LETS MAKE THE INTERIOR AS CHEAP AND BLAND AS POSSIBLE."

Big difference between a sports car and luxury car. GM did it a lot of things to save weight, cost, etc ... so that you could afford the car, unlike the other sports cars that cost $100K and more.

Is that hole in the seat cushion for a catheter?
Seriously, very nice.
Check out the embroidered steering wheels at Vette Essentials. It may be a bit much for your understated look, but I think they set off any interior.
