Interior swap done

[yefferys50]

I finally finished the interior swap and figured out my starting issues. I'm waiting on my new head unit to get here (Kenwood DDX470) and that'll be all for now. In the next few months I'm looking at getting a new pair of seats, either some Corbeau GTS IIs or A4s, I'm still undecided.

The interior itself is out of a 2003 Mach 1. I ended up re-using the factory tan driver and passenger side airbags, as well as the steering column covers and glove compartment. I painted all of them to match. They turned out pretty damn good, I'm really impressed with SEM interior paint, got it from Late Model Resto.

Here are the pics:

looks pretty good. Thats in your 97 right?

and do you drive with the steering wheel like that? you a school bus driver?

lol looks real clean! My 04 GT came with the center bezels that gunmetal color. Wish i kept them that way. Painted mine to match my silver which looked good but 6 years later it looks like poo...Gonna send em off for hydrodipping this winter though

Looks really good! I really wanted to do that to my 96 Cobra, but never got around to it.

What's wrong with the steering wheel? If you're talking about the height, no I drop it down lower when I actually drive the car, it was lifted all the way up because I had just finished buttoning everything up.

Thanks, it's one of the best mods I've done so far. The factory tan interior with no console cup holders sucked really bad.

Lol i was just giving you shit. Nothing was wrong, it was the positioning. Almost like a bus driver wheel. Bad analogy/joke i suppose

I figured you were giving me shit but it was reaching a little to make a joke lol

Funny, i used to like the black and or saddle interiors better than the charcoal. I thought the charcoal was bland and dull, but now I think the charcoal is cleaner looking.

I did the swap in my '96 Cobra and I love it. Even got the same Kenwood HU you're getting as well and it's a sweet setup. Any other stereo modifications being planned?

Charcoal is pretty bland which is why I went with a IUP interior. The silver breaks up the charcoal nicely. I thoughts about sticking with the tan/black two-tone interior but I was sick of not having cupholders.

Great minds think alike. I'm planning on adding a budget sub and amp combo. Kenwood KFC-W2531PS 10" woofer, Apline MRV-M500 amp, and a smallish ported box. I don't want anything that hits super hard and the above combo is priced right and should sound good.

Perfect job.

Looks like all the pieces just dropped right in. Not a scratch on anything.

Here's a pic with the double DIN installed

Next up is a full stereo install. New components, sub, 5 channel amp.

Thanks. I love the SEM interior paint you guys sell. It matches almost perfectly.

Perfect job.

There are a couple of minor scratches here and there but nothing too bad. Thanks.
