Here's what my interior originally looked like: http://mywebpages.comcast.net/rbloedow/index.htm

And here's what it looks like now : http://mywebpages.comcast.net/rbloedow/index2.htm

Now, all I need to do is find a black steering wheel

 

what did u do with your stock floor mats

 

very nice but u didn't replace the front dash?? ..

 

Yes I did replace the dash! That's just the color it's supposed to be (brown)! My door panels are the same color

They are still drying on my fence, so I didn't put them in for the pics

 

nice combination of colors, actually. Good work - very thorough!

Thanks! THe only thing I wasn't able to swap out was my parking brake handle (I couldn't figure out how to get it out). It looks a little funny, since it's maroon, but I'm gonna paint it black soon

 

looks alot better....for the inserts on the doors....did you have to get a whole new door panel or just re-apulstered*?

 

oh yes now i see it. u did a pretty good job and how long did it take you.. very nice and was it easy??..

 

AWESOME. You are an inspiration to swapping out my interior! Thanks. Keep up the good work.

 

great job! and very very good idea, i think it looks a lot better. do you still have the old seats? the back cardboard piece from the driver's side in particular...or anyone else know where i can get that piece?

 

nice job, looks ALOT better than the maroon...AHH its the "star trek wheel!" Why didnt you go for black? how come you have lettered tires? ok im done with my questions

 

Wow. Im very impressed. That red interior would have bugged the hell outa me.

Are those Doritos?

 

yea on the roof of the civic

 

Phew! Too much writing!

No, I just got new door panels I have never seen the type of fabric that I have in any other maxima. It's like Corderoy (sp?) kinda. I'll see if I can get a close up pic


Was it easy - no. It took me 4 hours to get everything out of the donor car, and about 10 hours to get everything swithched out and put in my car. Also, the carpet from the donor car was VERY stained, so I had to pay 50 bucks to have it professionally cleaned.


I sold the old seats to some dude @ the wrecking yard for $25. Just got to a salvage yard and rip one off of a car


Yea, I hate the wheel too. I have looked in every salvage yard here in Panama City, and almost all the wheels are gone. The ones I could find were funky colored. I want a wheel from a 94 max (since they look SOOO much better).


Hella Yeah! I had to have soemthing to much on after a hard days work!

 

for the parking brake handle...you can open up the parking brake
console (4 screws) and un-bolt the whole hanle out...you may
have to loose the parking cable a bit first to yank out the hanle...
but it should not be more than a 30 mintue job.

 

Looks way better than burgundy. Good job. It looks way better.

 

Yea, but I'[m not gonna rip everything out again just for the parking brake. I'll just paint it black (I'll look good when I have my black steering wheel )

 

Also, about the lettering (whitewall) on my wheels. When I orginally got new tires, I requested that they would be installed facing inwards (so that you can't see the lettering). I had them installed at my Air Force Base, and they were done by an old man. I guess he didn't notice that I asked for them to be facing inward, so I was a little shocked when I saw them. But, after looking at them for a while, I decided that they weren't that bad. I also didn't have the patience to wait for him to change them.

 

how much did you pay for a new back seat?

 

I paid $150 for the WHOLE interior (dash, seats, carpets, etc). THe best place to look for one is at a salvage yard. The seat might need some cleaning, but thet's gonna be your best bet.

 

Me claps my hands and jumps up and down. a maxima with BFG tires
looks good, but what the hell is that steering wheel
btw, that paint looks purdy.

thats the same interior as I had in my GXE and I always wanted to get rid of it, lol but it looks way better, and matches the car more.

 

i was thinking about finding some black se leather to swap into my car. i drive a white 91 gxe with that same tan interior that rbloedow put in his car. does anyone know if there would be any problems with installing 92-94 SE interior into my 91 in case I can't find an 89-91? thanks!

 

Memories!

 

I think you should do your whole car in the red flowered material like your driver seat

 

haha yeah, what is the deal with that seat cover?
