Black buttons in place of grey

Things I need to do:
-Figure out how to color the Range and Average buttons so the text is correct vs the 92 ones I have now

-Finish up some lettering on the Seat controls and add it for the power key ( I have a plan just waiting for materials)

- Change the steering wheel.. When I had the DIC out I noticed the 'INFL REST' Bulb is not there so my guess is a ground issue and the PO pulled the bulb. I just would like I Different wheel and eliminate the air bag.

I think that was good work for a Saturday

[secondchance]

Great looking job!

[Hammer]

Great looking Jeff, nice work. Tasteful too.

[We Gone]

[RICKYRJ1]

[ghlkal]

Nice work!

OK, I have the same issue ... what did you do (take apart) to fix this?

[-=Jeff=-]

Nice work!

Do you have a picture of your issues? It will probably require dash pad removal to fix it

[-=Jeff=-]

ghlkal,

here is what I had

(mind you the dash has been swapped, but even the one I put in had issues originally

[ghlkal]

ghlkal,

here is what I had


Yeah ... mine looks like that too.

[-=Jeff=-]

So in the problem with the dash was this:

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-054RkKnihgM/UZYutJEuHWI/AAAAAAAAD2s/MEoqqika9ts/s1152/Missingmount1.jpg

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ALz4lBeV50s/UZYutGPxKaI/AAAAAAAAD2o/Q1mKkzHmJGY/s1152/Missingmount2.jpg

the Defrost dash screw mounts were broke out and the dash was cracked by the glove box area..

so I mended it:

I also glued/pop riveted one spot nea rthe glove box where the vinyl pad was pulling up..

[HAWAIIZR-1]

Nice improvements there and it is more updated without the carpet on the lower dash. I really like that. Great job!!

[rkreigh]

looks fantastic

I'm wanting to put in a black red interior

can you "redo" the stock black door panels with the red?

what material works best and is there a shop in NOVA you guys would recommend?

like to get the seats, door panels, and knee boards all redone custom in black/red

also, what's involved in putting the pedal covers on, do you have to drill and tap the pedals?

nice work!!!

[-=Jeff=-]

Thanks Guys.. I am digging the black button contrast with grey

Ron to answer your questions



can you "redo" the stock black door panels with the red?



there was a guy on CF that bought red vinyl from a fabric store and made it work.. I would think a Upholstery/Trim shop could do that or search eBay for a Pair of Door panels in red



also, what's involved in putting the pedal covers on, do you have to drill and tap the pedals?




Those pedals were 3 drilled holes then Machine Screw with lock nuts.. I drove it today for the first time with those and it is not too bad, they are a bit wider then stock and I was concerned my Clutch foot would hit the brake..

I have only had the pedals for 6 years... LOL I have a Accelerator one too, but I decided I did not want to install that one

[WydGlydJim]

Drape the red snowflake blanket over the rear cargo area, and you are set!
:-D

[-=Jeff=-]

Lol.. It left with the hatch

[Locobob]

Hey Jeff, how hard was it to get the 94+ hush panel to work? I've got a set of 94+ doors and hush panel. I have the doors just about on... except that I'm fighting with a high spot/gap in the middle, been eyeballing the hush panel and trying to decide if I'm gonna do anything with it.

[-=Jeff=-]

Robert,

it is not too bad to do honestly.. I had the dash pad out of the car to cut off the carpeted hush area. I cut it right at the indent at the top of the carpet. on my 94+ hush panel the right most tab ( on corner) had broken off and it was actually better that it was gone for fitting it. to hold it up I made 2 short brackets that bolted to the dash structure and I used fender washers with a bolt and nut to clamp down on 2 of the 3 tabs of the hush panel.

It turned out really nice but where the door meets the dash edge the dash is about 1/4 forward of the door which you can see in the picture I had posted.

it does really change the interior.. now to decide if I should go all red with the carpet

[XfireZ51]

Jeff stopped by yesterday since I am starting on conversion of my black interior to saddle/cognac. So I'll have some black interior pieces for sale.
Jeff's interior looks great and he had done the interior lights w white LED and it looked awesome at night w the red interior.

Most of the tabs are broken on the hush panel I have but I could probably rig something up, I noticed that it has the same two lower bolt hole locations as my current panel but they are covered over with fabric???

P.S. I vote no on the red carpet, it doesn't seem to stay looking nice very long.

[-=Jeff=-]

You don't need the lower bolts that are covered, you use them I did not on my conversion

[Schrade]

Looks sharp!

Do you know if this leather hush panel will fit a '90?

If you have this black leather hush panel, and IF it will fit my '90, PM me here... And I still have my Cognac panels installed here, both sides, after conversion to Black...

it will fit but will require cutting your current dahs pad to make it work.. see my reply to Locobob..

My car is a 90 that I modded for this

Got it there Jeff - my same tab is snapped off too (Dom - forgot that the P-side panel is integrated into the dash; still have the D side, if interested)...

Got snappics of the bracket fabwork there Jeff, for the P side?

[Schrade]

Yep - definitely need some shots of the bracket fabwork if you can, even get some blind shots - the flush fit looks very good...

I will get some, I am just not sure when that will be..

Fab work, after cutting the dash:


You can see the brackets I added on both sides (with the fender washers)

I have the Driver's hush panel in a Cognac. It's installed. Do you need black ones because I have both mine.

[XfireZ51]

Jeff,

After having glued the carpet onto the pass side, the factory should have done it the way you did. Makes it easy to remove and swap.

[Locobob]

Thanks for the pics Jeff, so its the tabs on the side by the fuse cover that you don't use/remove, mine are broken off anyhow. I haven't taken the plunge just yet... cutting the dash pad makes me a bit nervous, maybe I need to have a stiff drink before I get started on it haha.

The corner most tab under the fuse box cover is gone.. there is another that would be closer to the door jamb/ where the dash meets the jamb that I still am using.. I don't know if it is needed or not but if it is there you are better off


I took those pictures late the other night so I can pull the fuse cover off and snap a picture to help clear the explanation up

Oh that would be most helpful - thanks Jeff

Rob,

Do these help?
