swapping interior?
Has anyone swapped out their interior?
I dont like the 2-tone in mine. I have a mag red car with the black/oak interior. I REALLY want all black interior.
Has anyone done this and tell me how hard it was and approx what the costs involved were?
Thank you!

i saw your pics. Very nice. I just want the opposite, LOL. I want all black! Maybe i could get my doors and stuff in Mag Red and do a red/black theme like the C4's had. I really like the doors on those cars.

May be a good opportunity to do some custom seats.
I did some work on my wife's white '01 vert last year. It had dirty gray interior and I picked up a black carpet set off the 'for sale' forum, and I put custom white seats in it.
I'd bet that if you are patient, you can find most of the pieces you want on the forum. If you get used seat covers, though, be sure to check for the infamous bolster wear.

sadly I have bolster wear on my DS seat now. Also thinking of black C6 seats. Saw a recent post saying they bolt right in. How difficult was it to remove all the old carpet and install the new?
Anyone mod their door panels as well?

Trade ya. I'd like to go with Oak Int. (minus the seats though. Mine are different than yours)
PM me if you're interested and we'll work out the details.
