    Default Interior Swap Version 2 ::UPDATE::

    Yet another interior swap. I hate blue interiors.

    Got another black interior from our local scrapyard. We beat our old record of stripping a car, got it down to an hour and a half, carpet, dashboard , everything!
    Excuse the ugly pics, my digicam hates low level light.


    Currently have two dashboards to choose from




    The rear seat

    Freshly cleaned carpet



    More seats etc. The frames for these seats are trashed, very bent.
    At least the leather is good.

    UPDATE:

    Rear Console: 2 bolts hold this on at the bottom.


    Front Console: 2 Screws hold the rear and front consoles together. One is hidden in the storage compartment and the other is below the handbrake boot. If you look closely at the hole, just infront of the seatbelt clip, you'll notice a bit of black plastic. This is put over a threaded stud and is held down by a plastic nut.



    If you look at the rear of the front console you will see the 2 locations where
    the screws hold the rear console on.

    Here you'll see where the 4 screws for the radio, climate control and OBC surround are located.



    Dashboard removed.

    I can't understand how some people can jack the car incorrectly. The previous owner put a huge dent in the passenger footwell. Here you can see that we fixed that and the bent seat hook.
