I've been thinking about stripping the interior of my GTA. The interior is pretty much crap. I only paid $1250 for it though.

I wanted to strip it out, put down black carpeting and headliner, put in 2 black racing seats, and spray paint the grey interior plastics black. (Flat black is the theme) I wanted to build a custom console just big enough for the shifter and locate the window buttons to a panel, attached to the dash.

I am aiming for a race car, more brutal looking approach to the car. I want to remove the rear seats and make room for a small roll cage.

So post some pics of stripped interiors, preferably 'birds.

 

This is the best I could do....sorry but I'm not willing to strip it back down to take a better pic, lol. You understand right?

 

looks good, I want to strip the interior, remove any deadening material, and redo it black, and flat black. (Theme) Black carpet btw... lol

How hard is it to remove the interior? Anything I should no, concerning wires or anything?

 

Well I have not remove 100% of my interior but for the picture up above if that as much as you want out then it's pretty easy your just be removing the center console, then the seats and then the carpet give or take the door guard things. I say the only thing I had a problem with was accidently unbolting the shifter and not just the center console. Now if you’re going for the back you'll have to remove the side plastic panels.

 

I can't remove the back seats, how do I go about doing this?

Also the back seats hook up to those black metal pegs attached to the sides. I can fold the seats down but what tool do I use to remove the black pegs? I can't remove the platic panels without this piece out.

 

It's fun to copy and paste then to write it all out.

 

Thanks I'll have to try that tomorrow, I have the split seats.

 

Here's mine. this one is pretty old but nothing has changed.

 

thats awesome, thanks

 

This is the best I can do, this how the sport coupe looks right now, it was completely gutted except the plastics.

 

Looks good, what ripping the carpet up straight forward?

Update: got the rear seat cushions out, now working on the seat backs.

 

The carpet was the best part, once the seats, center console, kicke/rocker panels were off I was able to just literally rip it out. Oh yeah, my Sport Coupe paid me 20+ dollars in loose change

 

My center console is just trashed so I'm just going to junk it, sorta sad I bought a GTA with all those "luxury" options and I'm just gonna rip them out. lol

 

Just find another center console thats the same, or just get a nice one and you can cut out the spots for the power windows, trunk release.

 

I think I'm going to get an aftermarket one, I saw this and I liked it.

This will take the place of my whole console right? I want to free up some room up front.

 

Awww.. What are you planning to add on this? Headunits? Leather/vinyl seats?

 

 

wow, those floorpans are mint!

 

preparing for a new carpet (one in better shape anyway ) after cleaning up most of what the previous owner(s) left behind.
