Default New Interior - another WiP

Having finally got all the bits together(for now), I've started swapping out my interior

Before:




During (including finding 29p under the old carpet):







And getting close to the end:





More to follow. It got dark so I couldn't finish it last night. Also need to get some longer bolts so I can fit the harnesses, harness bars and keep the factory seatbelts for daily use. Waiting delivery of some alcantara to finish the parcel shelf having made some spacers for 6x9s rather than the tiny rear door speakers. Will keep me busy along with my other jobs for the next 2 weeks

I can just get in and out, and it made fitting my new stereo interesting

Some more pics after today, just need some fine thread pitch longer bolts to finish the harness bar and the last mounting point on the harnesses

Driving on the road with a harness must be a nightmare, when I wear mine for 1/4 mile days I can't even reach the mp3 player to change tunes

Nice seats! How much did they set you back if you don't mind me asking? PM if you want.
Cheers!

I bought them from a mate for about £450 iirc. Don't know about long journeys as I haven't driven it since fitting them. I used to have something similat in my last car, albeit less comfy and they were fine, I just bought the extra lumbar cushion which I think I'll do with these too

Here's the rear seat and parcel shelf, although I'm not too pleased with the parcel shelf so no close ups. Just waiting for 2 bolts to finish the harness bar off





I've also covered the centre armrest in red alcantara with matching door cards to follow. Saving for some flocking later this year (dash, stereo surround and centre console) and just need the aerial adaptor for my new stereo. Steering wheel is in the post
