The interior was completely dead and seeing as this is the most important area in making a car comfortable and fun to drive I went a little extreme in it's renovations...
In went new Recaro Sport seats, new ACC carpets, ABS headliner, Door panels with upper trim moulding, Armrests, Console lid, sunvisors, Window motors, Floormats, and all the interior plastic trim was restored and painted. The car also has new regulators, window guides, windshield, and a MOMO Tuner steering wheel. The A/C ducts were sealed and a replacable allergen filter was installed. A new blower, compressor, hoses, filter-dryer, and condenser round out the HVAC system. The dash was cracked so I replaced it and insulated the new piece to prevent noise along with the under-dash panels.

The ENTIRE interior was lined with acoustic insulation (140 sq ft) and it makes a HUGE difference! Good thing as it was a HUGE pain-in-the-arse to install. Not pictured, I located a 1LE spare and aluminum rim and installed it.

The stereo system was a pain in the arse as their is nowhere to mount anything in a 3rd gen F-body!

The completion of the interior is down to one project! I've put-off the Auto Meter conversion for now, waiting for the new "Nexus" line to be released! These gauges are UNREAL! I have to wait until they come out with a complete set with tach and speedo, but they will be worth it!!
