re-doing interior

hey, im about 1/3 finsihed with my interior. From the seats back it is all jet-black now, and actually looks really good. Im doing all the vinyl on the door panels in red, and all the carpet black. The whole dash is gonna be black too. Ill have some pics up when im done.

Oh, and any idea on how to remove the seats?

I also re-did my interior on my TII. It use to be gray/blue and not its all black except the door's upholstery and the headliner. I think an upholstery shop should be able to dye it. I also put a new painted dash. It was alot of work but all worthit!..

Seats are 4 bolts, pull the seat all the way back, remove the front two bolts (bolt head is parallel to the floor on the drivers side, one parallel and one perpedicular on the pass. side), and then pull the seats forward and remove the rear bolts.

Love to see pics.

probably around sunday ill have some pics. thanks for advice on the seats.

The carpet was done with a fabric coloring, you can get it at any auto parts store. It comes in spray cans, but it isnt like spray paint. It doesnt bond like paint does or have that characteristic of clumping or anything. So I used that on the carpet, and I have one door finished. For the vinyl surrounding the door I used a Flame Red vinyl color, and for the fabric inserts I used a Blak fabric color. I have to finish up the dash, the drivers side door, and the carpet up front. Dash will all be black, as will the carpet. Then it's time to order those Red MOMO seats I have been putting off.

ok guys, shes all finished inside, i promise you pics tomorrow........

And please ignore the stock seats i have right now, they are getting replaced with a pair of MOMO T-Frames shortly, so that is why they remained the originla burgundy color, i figured it wasnt worth my time to change the color.
