Well.. I just ordered new vinyl seats and carpet thru Hawks Third Gen. They were the only company that could send me the matching color sample. Acme does the seats not sure who well do the carpet. Paid a little extra for the rare brown vinyl color but I had just about given up. Well post results on product and installation.

Re: Interior

You should have looked into lethalinteriors.com She would have sent you some samples and she does top notch work on seats for sure. I love mine. Installation isn't too bad but time consuming. It's also worth it to replace the foam too if your not already planning on doing it.

Re: Interior

Thanks for your reply Mr. X I did see leathallterior last year when I started looking to redo. I just went there and as before they were backlogged with orders. That's how it is when your good at what you do. The fold down has some sun damage I should be able to repair, no one sitting in the passenger seat for ever it seems and the last riders in the rear seats were the grandkids. But with 150,000 highway mile gone the driver seat feels like I'm sitting on a park bench. And walah the seat foam just arrived today. Looking forward to doing some upholstery work.
P.S Nice looking '92'.

Re: Interior

Thank you. Good choice on getting new foam. They are pretty darn comfy with new foam on them. There is a video on youtube from the manufacturer of the foam that gives you some tips on recovering the seat. Best thing I can tell you is to take your time and get a decent pair of hog ring pliers. You can also do what I did and get the cheap pliers from lowes but grind the tip of them down so it holds the hog rings out farther.

Re: Interior

I got one set of front seat foam from Jeg's. They claimed. it was the last set they had. I searched for finding it there. Somewhere else I looked (Hawk's?) indicated that more was being made, but nothing in stock yet. Jeg's says August, but dunno. They come from OER, P/N. SF133. Add 'PR" to the part number for both front seats.
