New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

So not too much to say that the pictures don't say for themselves. Wanted something that was pretty much stock, but not quite. I think I hit the mark. Thanks to Princess for another job well done.

Re: New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

Those are hot, well done.

Cool idea on the stereo too, sticking those controls under there. That is a neat solution to the 1.5 din dilemma

Looks good! Looks stock at first glance, but then you think....hmmmm, something is different. A nod at the first gens. I like it. Now all you need is some 17 inch wheels.... lol.

That's probably the nicest aftermarket interior I've seen on a Third Gen. Nice job!

Re: New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

That looks fantastic Chris! Your car looked great before, it looks "bitchin" now! Did you have to send off your seats or does Lethal do the covers and you stretch them over the frame and foam.?
This is a great look, they really do a nice job for our cars!

Lethal just makes the covers. I had them professionally installed. I can handle a wrench and torque specs, but stretching and cramming all the foam scared me! LOL

Re: New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

In my humble opinion, Princess is the best. Your interior is drop dead gorgeous (can guys say gorgeous?)

Real good match with the red.

Princess fabricated new covers for me and I installed them over one winter a few years back. Really very easy when you have the seats on the kitchen table.

Re: New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

Who did the door panels? And what is the 4th button for in the console? I mentioned it look sweet on Facebook but that was on my phone. I'm on the computer now and they look awesome. Man she does such nice work. Did you replace the foam too? If so is the comfort a lot better?

Thanks guys!
...yes, new foam, and yes, a LOT more comfortable! Princess made the door panel fabric, and sent me the door card material. I patterned the door cards off my old ones and my upholstery guy "made" them. 4th switch is the exhaust cutout. -just wired it into a iroc window switch.

Re: New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

I remember a thread here, talking with someone about doing this. Was that you?

I was a fan of the idea then, and I like it now that it's done. Good choice!

Yeah, I was joking around about using plaid. ...couple people chimed in with other odd ideas including blue jean inserts, and I mighta made a few photoshops! ...someone DID mention houndstooth, and I kinda laughed because that's already what I had decided to do!

Beautiful... She is really good. How much for the entire job? I was also scoping out your headliner. Did she build that for you?

Re: New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

Headliner is just a factory repop from Hawk's, purchased many years ago. I priced out many options from Lethal, leather, vinyl, different insert materials, door panels, no door panels, etc. etc. Factory tweed, which is rare and expensive was the most expensive option (even more than all leather) at $2200, doors and everything. I paid quite a bit less than that for the houndstooth.

Re: New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

I did 99% of my communication with Princess (she is Lethal Interiors) via Facebook messenger. Just look up Lethal Interiors on Facebook. That being said you could always google it and just give her a call. She was very easy to deal with!

Thanks!!!!!!!!

Absolutely beautiful. Did your installer provide the new seat foam or did you buy it somewhere else--what was the install charge?

Re: New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

I paid $500 for installation of the covers on all 4 seats, "some" foam, and gluing and assembling of the door panels. Lethal provided the sewn material and backer board, but doors were unassembled. As for the foam, I had new foam put in a few years ago. This time around he just adding some to reinforce the bolsters a little.

Re: New seats from Lethal Interiors - Beechwood & Houndstooth

Your interior looks beautiful!! I just placed an order with Princess for my 1988 GTA Beachwood leather gut. I am very excited to have the process underway. Unfortunately I have close to a 2 month lead time because she is swamped. But it’s well with the wait. Deposit is in and I’m in line. Can’t wait!!!!

Here is my 88 when I was looking to buy her. 100% rust free 105k mile car

Here she is at home first day on my lift.

Here is the front seat. Unbelievable what the sun has done.

This is the rear interior to be replaced
