    Not as happy with the Dash, looks good. Just doesn't look like the original. Looks like they put to much padding in it??? Oh well I will live with it, better then a cracked dash. I got a extra dash laying around so I will try a different place to see what they can do.

    Very nice, I am actually getting ready to go grab my back seat and cut it up to start cutting out the patterns and re-upholster myself. Should be fun and a great learning experience.

    VERY nice job on those seats. I have that exact pattern and color in my blue 4-door.

    That seat looks great and really made a big difference on the overall appearance of the interior. I really like the bench seat; mine originally had a bench but someone changed it to buckets. Personally, I think I would prefer the stock bench like yours.

    Looks great, wish he was close. Same seats as mine, did he recover the rear seat as well. My rear seat is perfect but because of age and fading wondered if they would match close enough. my seats.... [​IMG]
