To fit new trim to doors is easy, ive done it twice already:P

Take off your door card, and basically rip off the insert, you can just sikaflex it back on later, to cover it, well you can go to spotlght or lincraft and buy material there, fluff, suede, whatever.

CUt it too approx size of door trim and use either glue or spray adhesive or something, let dry, glue trim back onto card and let dry for a day....

You wanna put it on the console too? Its gonna be hard man.....better off painting it

im thinking buying a whole load of white faux-leather from spotties and doing the dash and console. then, gettin the suede and doing the bottome half u know, the dodgy plastics on the bottom half of the dash and console.

ill probably go dowwn to jollys this weekend and grab speaker pods for the front doors from a couple KR's they got sitting there. so that'd look mint as.

i dont like these dodgy paint jobs, went to autosalon n saw a falcon there with complete white interior. don't get me wrong, was an awesome ride n probably one of the very few fords i'd like to have, but the door cards were painted, you could just tell, let it down a fair bit actually.

Paul,

new mod already in the pipeline here :)

intention
black vinyl dash, doors, roof, gearknob (basically anywhere the existing "blue coloured stuff" is

Blue vinyl to replace the suede i currently have on the plastic cards in the doors, the sun visors and the gear boot.

reality.... probably to lazy to do it :P


i can do a rough chop to show you what i mean later


Vinyl is so much easier to clean than " FLUFF"
