I'm thinking of painting all my dash white and buy one of those white gauges kit. But i'm not sure if the mph speedo will fit on my kph speedo, anybody know about this?!? I also know a guy who make carbon dash trim and other material for rx7 2nd gen, maybe this will be great.

My door have been modified by the last owner, he put some 6 1/2.

Just my opinion, the interior looks very nice the way it is, dont destroy it by painting it and ricing it up. Just my $0.02.......

I just find the dash style too old, maybe just changing the seat will enhance the interior. I'll see what i'll do next summer ( /$!$ winter) :P

there's a guy selling S4 & S5 interiors for the 2nd gen on ebay. I think he offers crome, real aluminum, flexible aluminum, yellow honeycomb, red honeycomb, and a few others.

Not sure how far you want to go or your tastes, but a few accents with indeglo gagues would look nice. If you want to add a colored dash cover, then be sure to match your interior to that

yep the mph will fit on the kph gauges, as long as you get same model and year it will be fine.

hey has anyone put in that diamond plating in for floor mats

Dont worry I want to find some that is black b/c I hate how floor mats get folded up under there and just **** me off. I was thinkin of just getting some of that diamond plated sheet metal, painting it black and then screwing it into the padding under the carpet. Would this work? Thanks, Chris

btw im doing this b/c my carpet is gettin ripped up and I refuse to use those floor mats. Ive seen some riced out cars w/ it and It seems pretty logical that that stuff would work well. Would this just be gay or do you think it might work?

I've been looking for the aluminum floormats, too. I haven't had any luck yet.

I have Momo Superturismo pedals, a Momo dead pedal... Momo Trek steering wheel, Sparco Bio shift ****. A pair of Sparco Torino seats. Stuff like that will fancy up the interior in no time. Then you can add a nice look stereo face plate ... I have the MPH version of the gauges you want, I honestly don't know if they make KPH versions or not. Check eBay (of course). Try making sure everything is *clean*. That's the best mod of all. But your interior looks great from that pic. Those speakers are killer against the black... hope they don't get kicked when people get out of the car. I nailed my cousin's speaker like that just the other day

A TV? I put a TV in the glovebox, it works well in there and you can keep it low profile.

Hey Jumpy:

With all your MOMO stuff why not get MOMO fllor mats to match? Once my car is as fast as I want, and the exterior is done I will be working on a full MOMO interior(seats, steering wheel, floor mats, shift ****/boot, pedals, door sills).

I worked with the guy from ebay on matching his S4 interior to work with the S5 interior. I haven't posted these before (aren't you the lucky one), but here's what he offered. All textures were of excellent quality.

For the "Where do these go?" Comment:

They are the pieces that go around around the sunroof controls and map lights.
