The gray knob I have now is from a C5.

Anybody need any black interior parts, I have door panels in good condition so far. Will post other parts as they become available.

Does anyone recover the eBrake handle? Would really like to do the Jano SW.

I need the black section that fits the 'wall' behind the seats. You holding there Dominic?

Any problem with the door panel(s) fit?

OK. You need the riser then. I'll let you know what condition its in.

OK. Here's an update. First of all, Bob Demarco was good enough to give Pete and I a lesson in cleaning carpet. Some pics of the cleaned footwells. Cleaned up pretty nicely IMO. Can't do much about the red dye but its on the driver's side rear interior corner, so nobody will ever really see it. I got this from either Schrade or Scrrem and believe it has about 37k miles on it.
So I guess I am back to looking for rear carpet w seat riser.

Now here is a contrast between the OEM carpet shown above and the rear carpet I bought from Willcox. Needless to say, its going back. Carpet actually came in an ACC box and Willcox is working out the return. Hope to hear back soon.The tint is wrong and you couldn't say its because the footwell is bleached out from the sun.
I don't like the binder on the hatch floor carpet and the wheelhouse carpet is not cut for speakers.

Those carpets never looked that good in my car!! We need to get Robert to give an online carpet cleaning course!!

That's the idea! Figure I could do the same for the hatch pieces as well.

Looks fine.

I ran my '94 carpet to the car wash (PO was a

). Stuff was like Chia-carpet. Seeds and water would have made for a good yield. Or a Petri-dishrag.

I had already scrubbed them on the deck. Looked good, but left with too much soap. Took them to the car wash for that, and couldn't believe what washed out. You would NOT have known it from new.

Long as your riser section is hole-free, I think I can work with yours there Dom.............

I am going to try and do a Detailing course for every part of our cars. The first course is Carpet Cleaning 101. I am hoping to have it in the next heart of the beast.
I want another shot at that red next season. I am sure I can get most of it out.
