Interior swap
ok alot of things to answer, i'll just say what i remember.
bird - silver or bye bye. it goes somewhat, but not after you said silver birds on the floor mats.
shifter - leave it, goes with the badges and soon vent rings.
billet hvac controls - tacky to me, but its your car.
red lighting - do it tastefully and clean, it will look awesome. rice it out, i might take your car hahaah
leather cleaner/conditioner - i'll bring some to fridays. zymol. seems pretty good.
interior looks awesome though!

i was thinking maybe just two small red neon tubes under the kick panels to light up the driver and pass floor. not too much.
im taking the bird vinyls off, may or may not order silver ones.
gonna stay away from the billet *****. 30 bucks EACH is a bit much. and they dont really look that great.
and these seats arent even leather! lol but apparently the leather cleaner/conditioner works. tasteful is my middle name!

I used an "Extra Clean" detailer supplied all purpose cleaner. Purple power would probably work, but test it in an inconspicuous area. Make sure it doesn't stain anything.. I used that and a kinda hard scrub brush.
Spray the seats down good with your cleaner of choice, scrub the hell outta the seats with the brush, keep a towel handy to dry the seats and pick up the raised dirt as you go. Careful though, you don't wanna soak the foam pads under your seats.
I have either Mothers/Meguiars (I don't remember) spray conditioner.. It's in a spray bottle. I got it at advanced. I used it on my seats and my dash/doors/console. Much better than armor all, which I despise lol. Your seats probably wont even look the same anymore. I didn't know the true color of my seats until I did this! They look nice and clean now
Btw you don't have to take the seats out to do it, you can reach everything just fine.

ah, im jst worried about using an all purpose cleaner INSIDE my car, i dont want to get it on the carpet that i worked so hard to get rid of stains. lol, ill try this out tomorrow probably. thanks for the info!
so you use mothers or meguires spray...is it leather conditioner that you use on everything? i may have that stuff i think from meguires. in a black spray bottle, gold class leather or some ****?

That would be the opposite brand of the one I have. Mine is a red bottle, leather conditioner. Well whatever I used to clean my seats, I cleaned my WHOLE interior with, and it cleans everything in like 2 scrubs. If what your using is totally different, then i'd be careful. I've scrubbed my cleaner into my carpets, seats, dash, and engine, and it works flawlessly everywhere. I've used it in my house too!

I noticed you said way earlier in this posting that you were selling all of your old tan interior pieces. Have you gotten rid of any of it yet? I used to have a 96 TA with the tan interior and honestly kind of miss how the tan and black added some diversity to the interior. My WS6 has all dark charcoal interior. Thinking about doing something interesting or really really stupid with it. Haha

if you read the whole thread I PAINTED the stock door panels. all the plastics are half sold, still waiting for adam to come pick them up. and there is nothing left after that.
Update! Got my chrome vent rings today, also got my lloyd mats and installed. after i get these vent rings installed im going to take some more pictures. then the only thing left is im still waiting for my silver gauge faces then my interior is pretty much done! i am, however, thinking about making a custom rear seat delete/sub enclosure. im going to start measuring things and try to get a diagram drawn up and build it. but im going to keep it light weight of course.
also took the birds off the seats. may leave them that way or get some silver embroidered birds on the headrests.
