Interior help!
I just got a new 1983 RX-7 a few days ago. The interior is pretty good but the door panels are messed up (ripped, cracked material, etc.). Where can I buy new ones? Has anybody had ripped/cracked material on their door panel and then fixed it? Please help. I love this car but thats the only problem. Hopefully my interior will kick *** when im done.

You could go to an auto retrimmer and ask what they can do for you. You'll almost certainly get a better result from this than from what you'll find on Ebay (unless your lucky).

Uhh... yeah, the "fru-fru". Could you describe for us who don't speak your language what "fru-fru" means?

Can someone tell me some sites to buy vinyl? I think I'll do the repairs by myself. It seems finding panels would be too much hassle and a little more expensive. Shifting gears... how do you guys clean/keep your interiors clean? Does anybody recommend a steam cleaning? I figure I'll just take my seats out, clean/vacuum under there, take the center console out and clean there (plus the pieces), clean my dash, then go to the trunk, cleaning back there. Anything else I should do? Give me some tips please!

All the elaborate little trimming details that Mazda placed in the interiors. Chrome rings, "fake" stitching, etc. Since those parts are Mazda OEM, they are hard to replicate or not cost effective to.
