Wow.........looks real nice. I mean, what more can I say.

how'd you wash out your foam padding on seats? and what method did you use to get all the water absorbed by foam padding out? what chemicals did you use?

never wash the foam seats.

BUMMMMPPPPPPP

I bumped this thread for 3 reasons:
A- To inform berto that some of his pictures are dead, and when attempting to view ANY of the vids it asking for a password.
B-To tell rusty to Sticky this Mofo
C-To bust Norberto chops for wearing socks and sandals :

^^^^^^ fix your damn link

wow going back trough this thread brought back so many memories as i corrected most of the links....

I want to have the 6 disc changer again, i really miss that, and ill add the adapter for the ipod idk. I look into that. any ways i think its time to show some goodies i have in just cause...



my few favorite pictures..







those are old, argh!!!!

i have changed the interior of this car so many times.....

i remember when i was stupid enough to paint the carpet...



you cant never have too many animal crackers...



probably the worst inversion ever...



a fury hairball, too bad i cant keep it in the car all the time



failure attempts..



stupid phases...



good thing i got rid of them...



high memorable times ...



Best mod ever, and i miss it!!!!





weight reduction.....



so many things currently in process and more to come suckers......

stay tuned.....

well time for more nice updates... got rid of the disgusting fabric the idiots chose ...



its now where it belongs!!!



so what happened?

this



plus this



plus this



minus a little bit of this



I dont want to hear why u used those fasteners?

They are easy to take off, put on and ive been riding them on 3 years now... Those hog clips can go to hell for all i care. its called weight reduction also, couple of grams actually.

final pics? not yet but some to start with.. is 100 degress, doing one by one, not killing myself...



and the bottom installed...



I got these from a seller in ebay, and made a custom order, for mr2 seats in the front and celica in the back. I originally wanted perforated leather inserts, but i was sent the wrong order. I got only celica seats. He corrected my order and then sent me the mr2 seats, and i got these leftover



the fitment is good, is not superb, but it looks much better.. I did not get my perforated but in the end its ok, it will only be temporary... I like cloth better, but that will come later...

It only requieres s few trimmings as you see above... Its not real leather.....

only one more time

Those look awesome.

nice interior progression...gave me some good ideas like needing to redo my climate controll unit..I need to add more leds for the non lighting a/c and defrost....looks good though keep it up

thanks for all the good comments guys but, im not done....

i did the front seat today, passenger side, wont do the driver until i get a/c done in it...

these were tricky because i had to improvise, as the bottom did not come with the oem plastic but i managed it....





then the bottom

i needed the plastic from the oem cloth one..



put it back on the metal to avoid sharp edges....



then i used wire hangers to use as metal inserts...



drill some holes



put it back together...



and installed this beauty....



im still not over not getting the perforated inserts...

not bad not bad pain in ass puting the covers isnt it ive been thru this as well car looks very nice . wot u gonna do with gap between hood and bumper ?

i read most of the thread but i think i skipped something...are those front seats hybrids?. meaning mr2 seat backs and celica bottoms?

>


no they are mr2 on celica rails, which reminds me i have to update my how to thread..

So wait, you got the front seat covers for the Celica for free? The guy didn't make you send them back?

nope, because he messed up on my order, i wanted perforated inserts, and i did not tell him either... I was pissed.

I'd be upset too... Keeping a set of seat covers for seats you don't have doesn't make up for anything. I love the progress you make with this car though. It's always something good. If you ever decide to sell those seat covers, let me know. Then maybe my car can have a fraction of the cleanliness that yours does.

bump would love to see more of this keep up the amazing work!!

thanks i have a few things up my sleeve soon...

The circled part on the picture, is this only for the convertible? Mine doesn't have that.

Well thats a brand new carpet, the original carpet did not have that, so that probably was something that was later revised. I dont mind it because it add strength and is not visible.

I see. Other people remove the stock floor mat and that part usually gets worn/torn in time. That part is to prevent that happening i guess. Is the material leather?
