Interior restoration part 2

A year ago my car went through a flood (dont make me post the mold pictures again), I was not about to let my car get totalled so I decided to restore, and switch over from tan to black interior. I put new carpet in bleached all the panels and i had to do alot of work to the bay. But today I just finished the second half of the resoration. Click if you want to know why i did all this (http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i2...5/DSCF0331.jpg
New black carpet (part1)

Carpeted trunk with batt box (part1)

New headliner (tan to black)

New visors (tan to black)

New side panels (I will get black screws)

New steering wheel (with shift buttons, to be used soon)

New kick panels (easy to make for those with a bare center console and lost theirs)

New racing seats and 4 point harness' (auto seatbelts ruined in flood)

Looks good, even better in person.

Glad you like the seats/wheel.

Not yet im working on some ideas right now, trying to keep the back seat as much as possible but well see. Its better then having seatbelts that dont work at all and stuck in the down position

Re: Interior restoration part 2

Couldn't u have a bar fabbed that goes across the car behind the seats, i know that is what a harness bar basically is, but you could have one in a position that allows people to get in the back but its a bigger pain in the ass to get back there.

Re: Interior restoration part 2

Where did you mount the shoulder straps? Please don't say on the floor behind the seats. If you get in a front end collision, as your body moves forward they'll pull your shoulders down and compress your spine.

Re: Interior restoration part 2

DONE! well as you can see from the start of this thread that this has been a long project starting with a flooded car. I just got a hold of some prestine black leather rear seats, and with these the whole interior has been replaced and redone.


and since the Jeep liberty was feeling left out it recieved a little gift as well.
