nope...sry...one thing...good luck, i have been looking for a pair of black leather for the longest time, and the cheapest price so far was $900. They are too hard to find in black. Let me know if you find any. Also, post some pics of your interior.

I plan on putting my interior through a color change operation soon too. Some of the molding pices, I can see as it being hard to find. The seatbelts also are hard to find. I deffinitely don't want seatbelts from the junkyard. I just thought of dying the seatbelts a different color today. That would probabally be your best bet.

The material on the seat belts can't be dyed. It won't stick to the fabric.

I have a question about dying. I found a nice pair of light grey cloth seats from a '97 Firehawk for sale. I really liked them, but I only want black seats. I cant find black seats anywhere. I was wondering if the seats would come out looking good if I had them dyed by a professional. I was told that they can use a spray gun tpe of tool, like an airbrush used for painting, in order to do the seats. Will the black look good? Will it look faded? How long would this last? Does anybody know of this being done? Does anybody have any pics of dyed seats? Please let me know. Thanks.

Can't you just have your current seats redone in black?
