    Default Went nuts in the interior today:

    I wanted to fix the 'rocking chairs" in my front seats and since I decided to take the seats out, I decided to get all the stains out of the carpet and the headliner. Also was able to fix both headrests. Shampooed the rugs, headliner, rear deck. Cleaned and conditioned seats. I was able to completely fix the passenger side, solid as a rock now. The driver side I wasn't so lucky. I had the problem fixed and while I was tightening the last 10mm bolt the thread decided to snap off, so now 1 bolt is missing from the motor, causing the rock to come back in a little bit. Oh well, it's better than before anyway.

    Nice work. How did the leather take the conditioning?

    Mmmmm, clean rug.

    Very nice job, sure to inspire someone to do the same. I cleaned without removing the seats and now I'll have to do iot again. Wait a minute, who am I kidding? How many fries did you find?

    Thanks,

    pretty good, I just wish the seats would stay a shade darker . I went ove r them 3 times, but they still don't retain that deep luster after a few minutes.

    I'm about to do my seats with the "Leatherique system" Leatherique.com. This stuff has been around for a long time used for restoration on very high end cars.
