I just now got around to getting some pics of my "in progress" interior, with the custom kick panels and door pods, they contain a set of Boston Pro 6.5 3-way components.

hmm...didn't work....

 

ok, let me try again...

 

kick panels...

 

Not bad, but i vote for new carpet!!!! Oh my G o d, that looks like a damn crime sceen! lol Anyway, get a new carpet and you should be good to go. Nice job.

 

Yeah, had a leaky heater core. I'm goin to a 4th gen dash (black) and black carpet, after i get my new tranny done, so i'm gonna sell the stuff in the pics, just wanted to show some of the stuff i've done before i got rid of it.

 

some pretty clean glasswork there

how hard was it to re-upholster the doorskin?

 

i made a new one from treated 1/8" plywood, and attached the black plactic rail to the top of it, then recovered it all so that you can't see the rail. But it was my 1st time working with tweed, and it doesn't stretch as well as the vinyl and cloth i'm used too, it was a HUGE pain streching it to fit around the BOSTON lettering on the lower door pod.

 

so how difficult was it, minus the tweed?? Ive been thinkin about doing it but with some black vinyl which is quite easy to work with

 

rather reasonable really. Just used the stock fiberboard doorpanels as a template for the new ones, attatched the plastic piece at the top. Then removed the window scraper/weatherstripping from the top edge, then covered the panel (made one mistake: I put thin foam under the grey tweed, like on the headliner. glue was uneven, made it look like crap). You could cut factory type slots for the panel clips, not that hard, but i just let the speaker pod hold it on, works good. I have just enough clearance behind the 6.5 driver in the door and the window motor. I also laser-aligned the tweeters in the kick panels to ensure that they were aimed correctly (under the dash, over the center console). I'll try to take some more pics, as i am goin to take them out, as i will try to sell them to scrape up the cash for a 4th gen dash.
